The Quiet Hush


A person you trust Gives a quiet hush With nothing to had, to love or to lust The person you know, gives a quiet hush Something that is spoken and not rushed There is power in the words, spoken by the quiet hush Nothing more important than that… that word of which was spoken Oh quiet hush, your period is forthwith. But all is not as we hoped Time is thieving The feeling is leaving Death comes to the quiet hush It comes slowly and touches her, where there is no fuss Her time is done as the quiet hush There are no more words spoken The feelings flow in I wish she was here, the quiet hush Love and Peace go quietly away The quiet hush leaves me, and I have nothing left to say. Goodbye my friend, and travel in safety You are my quiet hush And I will miss you, dearly.
