Hither and Thither did I run
Looking for a safe haven but found none
Engulfed by tainted speech and noise
Threatening to break my equipoise
At last, in the only magical place,
Deep down beneath the surface
I was once lost but now I�m found
I rejoice on breaking new ground
For emerging from the din -
Is the silence within.
Born of silence, speech has meaning
Silence itself ; unborn and all revealing
Nurturing in its womb divine music and rhyme
A state of bliss in the other dimension of time
Waking the dead from their dreary existence
Leading to a path beyond circumstance
Reflecting the truth hidden in the soul
Reuniting the part with the whole
Cause� delivering me from sin -
Is the silence within.
What stayed with you?
A line that lingered, a feeling, a disagreement. Great comments are as valuable as the original piece.
