Sit by your bed and listen quietly
Hearing all your cries in the night
As you toss and turn in the bed
Whispering into the night
You cry but it is silent
Only because of what had happened that day
What scarred you and took your voice
Never to speak again
Never another word to come out of your mouth
Never another word formed by your lips
And from then on you were silent
Your voice only to be heard by the ones who understood
I, being one of those people
Looking down at your face
And hearing your silent voice
Not sure how to respond
Just continuing to listen
Even though no words came out
Just silent cries
On that pale saddened face of yours
Imagining what you would say
If only you could speak
But for now you are still the same to me
Even though it may not seem that way
I stil love you
That hasn't changed
You are still you
No matter how silent
No voice to speak
I understand that
As I understand you
And all your silent cries
