Silence

April 26, 2013
By Anonymous

No sound travelling through delicate ears,
Silence is a void for eternity,
No noise strikes terrifying fears,
Wondering about tarciturnity,
Trapping its prey alone with full solitude,
Speaking its language with seclusion,
Cutting through with fearful fortitude,
Manipulating others with illusion,
Repressed its underlying violence,
Its feeling of emptiness and nightmares,
Opponents threatning with defiance,
Innocent beings escaping from despair,
Knowing its always there and can’t be beat,
Silence is someone you won’t want to meet.
