Somewhere in the midst Jose let the sound of gunshots and screams of terror fade away That was the easy part The hard part was making himself Why couldn't he fade away Just as his Poppy had, years before And his Momma Just a few nights ago It didn't have to be forever Only for a brief moment in time He would like to escape the horror and agony That went along Hand in hand With being a street kid He leaned his head against the railing And waited for the banging against the wall one floor up To die away And be replaced by whispered sobs The shuffle of feet And slamming of a door And finally the golden silence The night brought many terrors to life But for now Jose would rejoice in the darkness that cloaked him
Silence is Golden
