The Dead In Silence

Robert Isaacs Chiwala

I shall not blink anymore

Pretending I be asleep

I shall keep quiet no more

Pretending I have nothing to say

 

Do you know why love is blind?

People mismatching in your eyes

End up making a perfect couple

Since hearts have no eyes, only a pulse

 

Do you know why love is sacrifice?

People give up on some things

Just to accommodate their partners

But it is never one sided

 

Do you know why love is understanding?

People do stupid things

Sometimes excitement fades into frown

But it has never be deliberately

 

Do you know why love is kind?

People do wicked things

Yet theirs do understand...

Sometimes a silent signal of being tired

 

Do you know why love is trust?

People know each other so well

Sharing everything no secrets

But trust is always earned never given

 

Do you know why love is conciliatory?

People are fond of each other

Some people really do care

Sometimes it is okay -not to cling on people

 

Do you know why love is forever?

Because it keeps on growing everyday

It cannot just last within minutes

Otherwise lust -end with only a blink
