SILENCE | Silent Storm

Many feelings,

Many words,

Much to express,

A lot to say,

Yet there is silence!

Feelings of love,

Of hope,

Of being sorry,

Feelings of making it up to someone,

And feelings of anticipation.

Words to console,
To inspire,

Words of passion,

Words for every little feeling,

Some said, some unsaid.

Expressing trust through actions,

Sorrow with a nervous laughter,

Happiness through nonchalant gestures,

Love in anger,

Expressing love through silence.

A lot to say,

But silence says it better.

Hidden telepathic conversations,

In the head,

Or maybe really?

Yet silence,

It says it all;

As a heavy heart cannot lift itself,
By words alone;

It needs to be felt.

The inner happiness,

Not expressed through a smile,

Yet felt somewhere,

Needs another soul to notice.

The forbidden friendships,

& bottled up feelings,

Quietly stay, for they think logically,

And silence remains, always.

Yet memories and dreams,

The hope to meet,

Imagination, enough to build a new reality,

And feelings, enough to love deeply,
Prevail.

And now I realize more than I ever have,

What a silent storm one can be.
