Wisdom Lives in the Silence




This is another type of poetry.  It doesn’t necessarily rhyme, but if you read it closely you will find each line is seven syllables. It’s quite a challenge to write and another form of expressing thoughts by communicating in patterns that match, and in their own way rhyme with a common beat.

Wisdom Lives in the Silence

In darkness we find silence
In silence we find ourselves

Peaceful dreams talk in silence
In fear we scream at ourselves

Dark silence holds much wisdom
Noise disrupts our thoughts and dreams

You hear the fearful screaming
Its floating on the silence

Its living in the darkness
Chase evil nightmares away

Noise to imagination
In the light we find the source

That disrupted the silence
In darkness fear no evil

For evil makes too much noise
Exposing itself to us

Conquered by the light we hold
It crawls into another’s dreams.

Let the rhythm of your heart
Beat the silence of your soul.
Seek and find even dim light
To chase your demons away.
