SILENCE
The loudest sound
Rarely do I ever find silence
Even when I turn off the static radio
Even when I bite my own tongue
Even when I am but a monk in the mountains
I can still hear everything
I can hear their thoughts
I can hear the lights flickering
I can hear the earth murmuring
I can hear the trees moaning
Silence can you save me?
Save me when I want to cut off my ears
Save me when I want to choke back my tears
If this all ends will I then find solace with silence?
Then she sang to me in a language of light
The sweetest song of the night
I never knew silence had a voice
Until one day she spoke
And from the deepest dream I awoke
Silence
Came crashing down into my crown
Mercifully making way for the emptiness
And now I can truly hear
But it’s no longer with the ears of fear
