    Silence



    Silence folds

    upon

    itself

    layer after

    layer,

    filling first

    the mind,

    cleansing it of every errant thought,

    smiling at the sterile vacuum

    it leaves behind.



    It continues toward

    The heart,

    asking that it beat only for

    the joy of living.

    crouching to hear

    the ceaseless pulsing,

    it moves on.



    At last,

    the soul is stilled,

    untwisted from

    its rictus of

    angst and pain.



    As the water

    anoints each bend on the river

    on its quest towards the unity

    of the Ocean,

    so too does silence

    bless each ethereal space

    of our beings on its’

    journey toward the realm of

    Peace.

    good shit man. I especially like the image of the water annointing every bend of the river...though the whole ending was beautiful :)

    I think I'll go meditate...

    Thank you for your kind words! I was feeling very tense yesterday and I knew if did not write something soon, I was going to scream.
