About Silence

I think that silence is lethal
It doesn't have any forms
but it takes so many spaces

I think, silence is lethal
The way it fills the room
the gap between you and me
the crack in our destiny
Silence stole my opportunity

Silence mind shifted in my head
Forms unneeded thoughts
Unassisted, unfinished
Endless damages

Silence
The way it speaks, words unsaid
The way it moves, gaze crept
How I hate this silence

But then,
I'll remember silence as a beauty
In its lethality, silence is understanding
In its lethality, silence is compromising

Hold our grounds like a tree in the hillside
Keeping us close as silence justifies
Oh, I wish there was more than a silence
There was more than just a stare

Thoughts drift like the wind in winter days
Fog gone before dawn, fade away
Suddenly, silence
There is nothing to stay.
