Silent House*

These walls
Have eyes
Rows of photographs
And faces like mine.
Who do
We become
Without knowing where
We started from?
It's true
I'm missing you
As I stand alone
In your room.
Everyday that will pass you by
Every name that you won't recall
Everything that you made by hand
Everything that you know by heart
And I will try to connect
All the pieces you left
I will carry it on
And let you forget.
And I'll remember the years
When your mind was clear
How the laughter and life
Filled up this silent house.
One room
Two single beds
In the closet hangs
Your favorite dress.
The books
That you read
Are in scattered piles
Of paper shreds.
Everything that you made by hand
Everything that you know by heart
And I will try to connect
All the pieces you left
I will carry it on
And let you forget.
And I'll remember the years
When your mind was clear
How the laughter and life
Filled up this silent house.
Silent house.
In the garden
Off the living room
A chill fills the air
And the lilies bloom.
And I will try to connect
All the pieces you left
I will carry it on
And let you forget.
And I'll remember the years
When your mind was clear
How the laughter and life
Filled up this silent house.
And I will try to connect
All the pieces you left
I will carry it on
And let you forget.
And I'll remember the years
When your mind was clear
How the laughter and life
Filled up this silent house.
Silent house.
