I am

I am the silence
After the scream
The deja vu
After the dream

The misty
Whisper of memory
Near
Yet endlessly far
You see

I am the break
In the breaking heart
Pulling inexorably
Further apart

Despite the beauty
Gold and green
I am the danger
In the stream

Laughing water
You quickly cross
Not seeing how fast
All can be lost

I am the heartache
I am the tears
Eroding faith
In remaining years

I am fear
Face me down
Or
I’ll always be there
