LOST GLANCES

How can those glances remain in my heart?

They touch my soul so lightly.

I am now but a shadow of those glances,

so do not try to see my face.

Glances like sunlight and birdsong.

Speak a little, for silence kills everything.

If it weren't for this terrible silence,

 all this sadness would not have happened.

A silence behind which lost glances hide,

And killed dreams.
