Be Silent Be sTill

A silence where no sound may be
There is something to calm your fears
for silence affects everyone in the end.
Our bodies are prisons cells for our souls
Skin and blood our iron bars of confinement
It's not easy to look at your heart for
Eyes that catch the light, burn up our insides.

you long for the happiness that day will bring, where
every shadow no matter how deep is threatened
by morning light, imagination, memory, and laughter
Without eyes still seeing are always singing out

Conversations are oceans apart butterflies with wings of glass
sewn words untangle with time Smiles set fire to the bluest of days
In these echoes of silence, I can hear the angels sing,

Live Life while you can make the most of it live live with no regrets
As forever fades away in these echoes of silence,
Wrap it carefully round avoiding all entanglements
Everything is so finite but that’s what makes
time and each specific moments so important.
