The silent one watches From the darkness alone Waiting for the opportunity To again become known The silent one listens To all of life’s woes Offering love and friendship Out of the darkness she goes The silent one is poetry Written with so much care For broken hearts, friends Or lovers to share The silent one is a friend Whenever there is a need For a shoulder to cry on Listening is the key The silent one is love Felt very deeply Rare and delicate And given completely The silent one is devotion Of an unselfish heart Always there quietly Giving love and support The silent one is all Of this and so much more But none is returned To the silent one’s door The silent one doesn’t want pity For her endless plight She finds comfort In the darkness of night The silent one disappears Back into the darkness Waiting until needed To again not feel useless
