Silence

Silence is an absence

Silence is profound

Silence is a conversation

Being had without sound

Silence is an expression

One that cannot be heard

Silence cannot be spoken

Although it is a word

Silence is a presence

Of great nothingness

Silence can be something

And yet cease to exist

Silence can fill a room

And have no mass at all

Silence cannot be dropped, yet it can fall

Silence is a mystery

That will forever go unsolved

Silence is how every sound can swiftly be dissolved

Silence is the sound of rest

The only sound that can sound best

While other sounds can cause great pain

Silence is not the sound to blame

For Silence is what silence is

Something that is nothing

Nothing that exists
