Say not a word,
For silence is golden;
Heeding the warnings,
Of abusers from past,
And abusers of present.
The miracle of silence;
Hiding your secrets,
Cloaking your shame,
From all who would see,
Imperfections and impurity.
Life-breathing stillness;
A guarantee of existence,
Cold and absent of trueness;
A self devoid of wholeness,
And decaying pain within.
Silence - miracle or curse?

Silence is action in inaction. One cannot remain silent, as his or her mental stream always runs in thoughts, good or bad. Sometime silence means acceptance. A wonderful theme you have taken for this poem.
Good point, most of the times silence is a curse.......allow me to thank you for your comments in voicenet, i do not know how to reply there......
Agree with Christopher Savin, silence can be either good or bad. It can be a show of strength or weakness. Hidden secrets or nothing to declare. Typically good poem from you.
silence is the time when you really can hear you inner being speak...I like this piece a lot. Tess
