Silence
silence slips through mere cracks
weaving its way among life
whispering with ideas
but fading away
hiding.
silence is not just peace and quiet
but the sounds that make
life worth living
slipping far
far away.
silence is the smile that lights up your heart
the eyes that crinkle as you laugh
the fingers that sprint
over a keyboard
flying.
silence is the water that dances in the air
as the rushing waterfall flows down
spraying glistening drops
high into the
air.
silence is the story that opens your eyes
the new world woven in a thin web
the characters that feel
real as
life.
silence is the wind ruffling your hair
the ocean carrying shells
in its soft embrace
but harsh in its
own way.
silence is the love that shines through
the eyes of your beloved family
the soft touch as they
gently care
for you.
silence is
not sound
in the ways
people think it is
but it speaks volumes.
silence is
beauty
by
itself.
