Silence

an emptiness of silence

felt deeply through my soul

fills me with emotions

yet I am still in control

a single tear appears

rolls slowly down my cheek

memories come floating back

but I am unable to speak

let silence wash over me

wrapping me in its arms

contemplation will help me

calm down my inner alarms

for silence isn`t empty

it holds many chances

stillness, a moment in time

silence is full of answers
