Silence Speaks

Silence speaks loudly...........

Moments full of thoughts
live inside
the spiderwebs running through my mind
they are colder than the brick
of my will.
Like the gates of a carnival
never tell the answer
to their riddles
so my thoughts
walk.........
with no favor of you still.

Vast lengths of my attention
have been ringing through time
and unraveling
into problems with every second
passing by.
Yet,
the silence
I write across these pages
says more about how I feel
than you know
or care........
to recognize.

. ohhhh ... this is a stunning piece of poetry, dear neva ... it's just so moving and soulful ... yet powerful and assertive too ... indeed silence speaks ... and the brevity of this piece conveys the mood of that silence ... "the spiderwebs running through my mind" is my favourite image ...

[Kiari Sabon]

i like it its short and sweet

[Tate Morgan]

That one speaks to me and the web of thoughts that run through my mind.I love the picture need to steal it lol

To display words like this is like turning a world on its head and shouting I love, i love and your cup should be running over .. but, you don't, you step slowly and whisper your spiderweb thoughts, waiting. A magnificent picture, extraordinary poetry. They reach where they should.

Silence improves the clarity of thought. Its where the inner voice is heard. Love the line.. yet, the silence I write across these pages...

[ghost writer]

the picture is amazing and gladly your poem seems to catch the moment and run with it..a beautifully constructed piece of writing

One of the most captivating images I have come across and yet the words of your silent reverie leave me feeling I've been struck by a dart to my heart. These words found in silence speak volumes to my soul...

[Kenneth The Poet]

Wowzers, brilliant prose inspired by a brilliant picture.

[The Analog Kid]

I like this poem a lot Neva. So reflective and speaks of space and time and how we process these thoughts.

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

A very captivating poem... it is those things we do not say or do that can say more than the words and actions we do choose.

This is so powerful, I just love it. So clearly articulated and full of passionate intent. Even with the subtle darkness of this piece there is a savory sophistication present that is unmistakably great. "Spiderwebs...Riddles...Unraveling...Problems...Passing by...Silence..." I felt this write and pulled more from simply the words as you say, "I write across these pages..." in order to express myself in letting go of all that you might not know. Wonderful work! :)
