Out of the darkness, silence fell
and fed herself to you.
Wrapped herself around your tongue
as you slowly withdrew.
It penetrated every word
that you wanted to say,
but in your mind, it left a thought,
before it went away.
See, silence speaks in many tongues,
she has so much to give.
That silence when you're thinking,
it will form the way you live.
So listen now to all her tones,
that echo through your mind.
Seek her out in solitude,
and see what you might find.
