I Maybe Silent Now

I Maybe Silent Now
By Melchor F. Cichon

I maybe silent now
Now that the sun is setting
And I am locked in this dark cell.
I maybe silent now
Now that the moss is kissing my cold lips
While the worms are enjoying their feast.
But don't misunderstand me.
There are words that are better left unspoken.
There are messages that are better heard in silence.
