One Poem by The voice of silence .

One



Your blue eyes are like a quiet sea in the dark,
And it softly whispers about you.
Here I stand on the sand by the shore,
Unsure if I should step into it.

What if I drown, what if I fail
To understand whom I truly love?
And all I hear
Is the moon whispering to me:

'Try, take it slow,
Perhaps this is your destiny.'

So I walk, the water cold,
With each step, the depth grows.
In the distance I see—a guiding star flickers.
It grows deeper, and I can't swim,
Yet I walk, unhurried.

Now I take my last breath and dive headfirst.
The light of the star dims,
Yet I move forward—then a sudden drop.
No path lies ahead,
Only emptiness and darkness.

I can only watch the star flicker.
'Perhaps I'll swim? Perhaps it will work? '
Taking just one step, I sink into the abyss of darkness.
The moon and the star vanish from view.
Here exists only me and the endless void.
