Tears In Their Ears

We exchange sighs of relief
as the distant crying fades
not sure how to live life
due to such a big change.

We learn to savor
longed for silence;
only an hour from now
they'll break
and call with all their
lungs for us

Hush babies we've rescued you.
hold you tight
against my shoulder
kiss the rained on cheeks from
tears streaming into
their ears.
