What do you think this poem is about?

A Code Of Silence

When the spoken words
Cease to tenderly caress her ears
And without any fears,
A poet's hand grabs a magic pen
To write lovely stanzas,
The ones that cannot be erased,
Since they were inspired by her name.
An inspiration that from heaven came
Dedicated to the Angel behind the violin,
The essence of my everything...
A code of silence is born
Reaching the point of no return...
Only written words remain,
A love-message spread around the world,
Traveling through sunshine, snow and rain,
Describing times well spent
And the secret of her scent...
Nothing said or done was in vain,
She became the center of my universe,
A love so passionate and so intense,
But destiny left its clear trace,
With time, things completely changed...
Finding myself drown in silence
In my chamber of solitude,
Navigating in a wild ocean
Of written words and thinking of her...

    I have always believed that with written words one never dies. It is one of the ways like painting, music etc. by which we can live forever and I suppose that is what is called immortality. Written words make one immortal. Here the poet has described the immortal love very beautifully and has written from his soul. Very deep and true. I loved the poem.

    What a lovely homage to a woman obviously well loved. The thoughts in this one are remarkable in their simplicity and adoration. Well done Romeo. I love it

    Very nice imagery. I can feel the love in the heart as it has her close and the crushing disappointment when the heart loses it's most valuable possession. This one took me on a journey through love and heartache. Well written. Brava!
