The house had never embraced such silence
as for years the walls bubbled with sound and floors pounded with promise
now I sit quietly listening and questioning if I could hear a pin drop
Babies tossed in the air as my heart flipped in fear he would drop
and the damage irreparable , so distant of my wombs promise
to never let them him hurt and to cradle him protectively to sleepy silence
Oh if the years had not passed so fast I’m sure I could have kept every promise
to take care of you forever and to lift you so high that you never would drop
so far in your motivation that your room was nothing more than low a frequency buzz of silence
Resenting silence; I wonder if I failed with my promise to be there and to lift you up so high that you never, ever drop?
