Hush

It may be true

What we fear most is silence

For in silence there also lurks the unknown

The simple fact that separates today from tomorrow

And forgiving from forgetting

But in this silence I feel peace

Peace of mind in knowing we don't have to speak to make things better

That we are as close together as the silence will let us be

We break free from silence one more time

To have only the stories, what we hoped to ward off, come crashing down on us

They seem to still be a mystery to me

In all there blissful happiness

They are able to let go

But could it be that something left to grow tall and strong will only end up weak?

And there, silence takes over again

It is serene

Fear not silence, but the fact that in silence we can no longer hide behind, the now, open doorways of our own lives
