A smudge on the glass
A rustling page
The tick of a clock
and the coming of age
The end of a dream
The sprinkle of rain
The drip of a tap
and the silence of pain
The kiss of goodbye
The sound of a tear
The whisper of love
when a newborn is near
The touch of a friend
The sigh of the heart
The stillness of grief
when two lovers part
