Silence

Silence reveals the secrets of the soul

We buried

It is an opportunity

Just for a while

To slow the mental chatter

And deepen into

The messages of your heart

Silence can be a balm

At times it brings fear

As we draw nearer

In silence

To the abyss

And yet here is where we find our truth

Sometimes impossible to claim

A secret meaning beating its name

With each pulse of our heart

Asking of us only to open ourselves

And embrace it

Completely
