Silence Poem by Gbolagade Taiwo

Silence

Rating: 4.5


As the saying goes
'Silence is the best answer for a fool'
But not every silence worth observing
In every words of a fool,
There will surely be a sense, even if it is not that much
There will surely be an iota of sense
Why do you need to keep silent in the face of tyranny?
Tell me! Will you keep silent,
When your life is not going as it ought to?
Only they that are radical and rational about life,
Will get the better part of life
If you keep silent with your life
No body speak or act on your behalf
You've got to speak your mind
Let people know what you feel about the situation
By that, you will get solution
Do not keep silent where you ought to speak out
Silence will never encourage you to feel the need for change
Silence will keep you comfortable where you know you have no comfort
It will hold you back from making progress in life
Do not let silence break you down
Speak and let the world hear you
Your voice can give you the change you want
Encourage yourself by the words of your mouth
