Silence where a voice was once heard
A seat at the table is now void
Emptiness from the lack of spoken words
A name that most people now try to avoid
They believe they have good intentions
But they can't fix what is broken
Eyes turn away from the mere mention
Of a name once easily spoken
Only air resides in the empty space
Sorrow where once there was bliss
Now reside where love once held a place
Reminding of what is greatly missed
