Don Bosco Philippines South Province

In the midst of the silence I am there
Amidst the deafening silence that you bear
I move over the silence, in the quiet of your soul
Quietly moving, for me to make you whole

I am in every drop of tear that you cry
I am in the pain and sorrow of your sigh
And I break as your heart slowly breaks
Hearing every little prayer that it makes

You move in my thoughts, don’t you know?
I loved you since before and even so
I’d die and die again for you to feel
You’re never alone and that I’m real

There’s no pain too great, I cannot heal
No problem too big we cannot deal
For you live in me and I in you
And in this silence my love rings true

I unearthed this poem from my journal. I remember I wrote it in one of the saddest days of my life, a little consolation from the Lord after a humble prayer of surrender.
