"sound of silence"
"cold of night"
and you are relying more on abstractions and poetic constructions:
"waterfalls of bygones"
"the dust on my lips aches to be made warm" almost evades the hackneyed "my lips ache to be made warm" but not quite.
Still, plenty of details, plenty of imagery, the writing is still quite strong, nice job.
