It's not the voice of Silence
That draws me closer
To the heart of existence
It's the purity of Silence
That drowns my thoughts
Submerging my being
Into the fabric of nothingness
The substance of Silence
Is not found in speech or thoughts
The substance of Silence
Is not imagined
Or manufactured
The substance of Silence
Emerges from within
Fully dressed
In a veil of wisdom
The substance of Silence
Seeks not my purity
Just my presence
Inside the leaf of existence
It's possible
That I am the chlorophyll
And Silence is the Light
Together we are the fabric
That focuses life onto the beacon of hope

Those last lines are anything but silent! ! ! They speak to the heart of man. 10+ and onto my fav list
Inside the leaf of existence It's possible That I am the chlorophyll And Silence is the Light Together we are the fabric That focuses life onto the beacon of hope
