Silver Bells


I hear the crystal clarity of
The bells
Silver
Their persistent chatter
A thousand chittering birds
Glass shattering
Madness
Kissing my lips because of
The bells
Silver
A warm touch
Brushes my cheekbone
Then
Silence
Nothingness
The bells
Silver
Clatter to the floor
I no longer hear the crystal clarity of
The bells
These silver bells
