Poetry: Silence

by Matthew Rawlins

Created on: December 28, 2008

The deafening exposure, to Silence rings loud.

Piercing eardrums, of a gathering crowd.

What they won't hear, is heard by none.

Why do they listen? When Silence is not gone.

Open your Mind, if there's nothing to hear.

Believe in the Wherewithal, Silence, not Ear.

Default from the Whisper, devoid of Noise.

Let the sound of Silence, invigorate your Poise.

Slumber and Silence, as partners in Serenity,

Prolongs our Peace, for all Eternity.

Delay your haste, to rid the Silence.

Don't give in, to noisy Defiance.

Peace of Mind, thrives on Quiet.

Gain control of Silence, do not Riot.

Pass on a World, we dare not Fear,

To the Next we bestow, holds Silence Dear.
