Just One Thing Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Silence is a powerful remedy and an analgesic for life's ever present pains and groans
More than we can ever fathom, Silence is a potent hypnotic and tranquilizer
Silence heals the body, mind and soul
Liberating our being from the tight bondage of life's ferocious demands
Unscrewing our existence from the hard surface of life's magnetic pull (needs, wants & desires)
Silence is a balm to address our worries and concerns
To dress our wounds and heal our broken heartedness
To alleviate our loneliness and allowing us to enjoy our aloneness
Silence is a fortress to hide our pain and suffering
To break our monotonous life into moments of nothingness (peace and freedom)
Silence has great healing abilities
It harnesses the power of being
To cultivate a harmonious sense of existence
But what is Silence?
Silence is the absence of you (ego with its constructed reality)
The presence of being in an infinite state
Silence is the hidden, everlasting reality
That is present in every moment
Silence waits patiently for you to discover and embrace it
To intoxicate and be with you
Silence is the ecstasy of being
