Many days have passed since I wrote something good Maybe that's a sign of my inner world quieting down Maybe in silence poetry has no place When the wounds stop hurting and the heart stops weeping There is nothing left to write about Or at least not with the same urgency No words that boil to be written No feelings eating you alive Just life filling your cup Significant small things Meaningful acts Deep conversations Home cooked meals And cozy blankets Have given me more peace Than you ever could
