I listened<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To the silence<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And saw my past<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The noise of them playing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Made me smile<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I peeked from afar<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I never played<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Too much hassle<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For running and shouting<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I listened<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To the pain of my mother<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Struggling to keep up<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With life\u2026. And us<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I squeezed her soft hand<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just to say<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026.. dont leave me!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For I\u2019d be good<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her tears kept rolling<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She smiled at me\u2026. In silence<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I listened<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To the wind<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That took me away<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To the beatiful life<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With awesome people<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That I love\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I gazed the horizons<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And listened\u2026..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To the sound of silence<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Celebrating life<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without words\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I smiled to the sky<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And listened\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To the beautiful rhythm<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of my life\u2026..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
