Soulful Silence

"Meaningful silence is always better than meaningless words."

Hard as a rock, quiet as the sky,

Gentle as the breeze, soft as the waves,

Bright as sunshine, dark as the night

Pouring through the rain,

Seeping through wet grass;

Many forms,  yet one voice

Silence, I can find you everywhere.

Many times when I do not want to speak

I search for you silence to speak to me,

For you lie deep within, waiting to answer

A million questions my lips do not ask!

Author's Note

waiting to know what you think

Silence is always a constant. Even in noise, it is only distinguishable if there is silence as well. And as you mentioned, the voice of silence is always the same, around all eternity, it is the same. And silence can also be one of the loudest of sounds, when it is there in the middle of two people's conversation.
I also found the climax to be profound as well... "A million questions my lips do not ask!"
Whatever is not asked is silence right? WOW... Great job.

I love the rhymes... Silence can be at times appealing and other times dreadful. Good job!
