You struggle for the right words to say You fumble for all the answers You talk and talk of things in life You produce the most extraordinary transfers You speak of your day; you speak of your life And what makes you really happy You anxiously listen to me reply And you love all words that are sappy. Sometimes I listen to what people say I get disheartened and walk away Why do you talk anyway? You have nothing at all to say. You are the world that communicates You are not one but all I only wish you would stop for a moment And listen to what silence can call. I wish everyone knew of what silence can do Of just watching and smiling and feeling And choosing the words that need to be spoken And knowing that tears are more healing. Words are pompous, silence can never be You can just look into my eyes and see all of me. In silence lie the answers that are easiest to see, Listen to the silence and be set free. Opinions are great if they mean anything at all And chatter is fine if you are nice But silence is loudest and listening is best Nothingness can be the best advice. Learn from the Silence. Speak through the Silence Understand through the Silence Listen to the Silence. |
