In Song or Silence

You speak in song, in longing tones, a plea
To music written, solely ours to share.
With voices coupled, sharing harmony
A chorus singing softly as in prayer

Then silence is our language, not a sound
With loving, yearning eyes, a story told
Of our immense desire which we have found
So natural--with ease we both unfold

Another journey taken--now must part
We slowly walk in step, then say goodbye
But distance doesn't separate the heart
For bridges made of love, will keep us nigh

You are my muse; for daily I rejoice
In song or silence, lifting up my voice
