Silent Tears

Wringing my hands, 
I remember the days,
I sit shaking.
and no one hears
the silence of my tears.

Wringing my hands,
I remember the look,
I sit denying.
And no one hears
the silence of my tears

Wringing my hands,
I remember the landscapes,
I sit longing.
And no one hears
the silence of my tears.

Wringing my hands,
I remember the promises,
I sit disbelieving.
And no one hears
the silence of my tears.

Wringing my hands,
I remember the dreams,
I sit wondering.
And no one hears
the silence of my tears.

Wringing my hands,
I remember the laughter,
I sit pretending.
And no one hears
the silence of my tears.

Wringing my hands,
I remember the girl,
I sit mourning.
And no one hears
the silence of my tears.

Folding my hands,
I remembered to pray,
I sat waiting.
And God heard;
the silence of my tears.
