Pain shoots through the heart with each moment of silence
Tears no longer fall from their eyes
A mouth that used to form hello now is pressed tightly together
People go about their daily lives never noticing what is wrong
Staring in silence at each other through a wall of pain
One always venturing to breach the wall with caring
The other turning away from the effort rebuffing without care
Like a tiger crouched for the kill one springs on the attack
Eyes flash and another brick is laid into the wall between them
One sits to wait on the day when realization will set in
Waiting for the wall to crumble and lives to be joined again
Without hatred or spite to contaminate leaving only love behind
