You Are






You are the song that has no lyrics
The dancing tune that has no rhythm
A wasted breath of laughter
A long forgotten answer
A teardrop on the ocean floor
A piece of shell washed up on shore
The shadow of a smile, once so beautiful
The void of solitude, the dusty book on the shelf
You are the old record no one plays
The silent tear that no one sees
A language that has no voice
A misinformed choice
A dead star in the glittering sky
An unwanted baby left to die.

-Wilhelmine Wachter
