Once in the Silence

Here, there and everywhere

Is what keeps me composed

The attention of one or the company of two

Is neither to ignore nor dispose

There’s not enough light for me to see

Not enough darkness for me to hide

For there will always be

The presence of silence inside

And within that silence comes not of the same

Trapped in the melancholic state of mind

Thoughts of the wretch what overcame

To me whose shape portrays fine

Some may call it madness

---And some calls it peace

This silence -- this complete absence

Is nothing but a disease

Once in this utterly vile silence

Shelters masked violence

---Violence only visible to me

Love it. Isn't silence so powerful?
