    Come to me in the silence of the night;

    • By Alicia Jackson
    • Published by Family Friend Poems November 2017 with permission of the Author.

    I hear your voice in the dead, dark night.
    I look around, but no one's in sight.

    But all you are is my whisper to find.

  7. 25. Dirge Without Music

    Famous Poem

    I am not resigned to the shutting away of loving hearts in the hard ground.
    So it is, and so it will be, for so it has been, time out of mind:
    Into the darkness they go, the wise and the lovely. Crowned
    With lilies and with laurel they go; but I am not resigned.
