The Earth grew silent

The earth grew silent today...
...in tribute to you, i think.
It wanted to honor your memory,
To create a space for reflection,
A place for introspection,
A place to think...
...of you.

The earth grew silent today...
In an effort to ease my sorrow.
To give me the time and space to breathe,
To reflect...
To gird myself against the heartache of tomorrow.


The earth grew silent today...
As i prepared to face the world anew,
To become the man I have to be...
Believing in me,
While honoring you.

The earth grew silent today...
As i placed your memories in my heart,
Realizing that I'd miss you,
Your smile,
Your laugh,
Your voice,
But knowing that we'll truly never be apart.

The earth grew silent today....
In honor...
...of you.
