Golden Silence Poem by Shelvakumari Thachayil

A million stars up in the sky
One shines brighter like you
The power in your eyes,
The beating of your heart,
Just talking to you makes my day
To love is to help and encourage
with smiles and sincere words of praise
To love is to make special memories
It is not your intelligence
It is only the deep love from your heart
That drew me close to you
That has thrown me all us like
It's the touch of your hand
And the thoughts about you
It is all of the little things
The things that don't get said
My life's journey ended early
The path I chose was short
You all tried your best to change it
But in the end it was for me to sort
One day you will all forgive me
One day you will understand
And when your time on earth is done
I will be waiting to take your hand
It is eternal right of my soul dear.
