what is soft
like the sound of silence
wistfully thinking
you were mine
to be kind
I don’t mind
if you kiss her
what is better
to be eager
or to be meagre
in loving you
since in my heart
you are love
divine

.A beautiful poem shared dear Nguyễn. In the Winter of my life. I seek silence. It is a bad thing? Maybe, all writers become like Salinger. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.

It’s natural to desire quietude, our mind is filled with an overwhelming amount of memories, making it difficult for us to digest the present. You’re going to be okay my friend. We are all going to be okay. I believe that. Take care.
