A blanket of silence,
so thick almost tangible
exposes truths.
Extinguishing lingering doubts,
it’s a silence within my heart.
Everyone rambles on and on
around me. Never pausing.
But I- I have bliss, serenity and tranquility
Wrapped in a neat bow.
Eternity lies ahead.
Thoughts echo profoundly
Imagination breaks free
from the closet
A mind palace is born.
This made my hair stand on end. Well done!
Thank you! 😀
I love this poem. The power of an introvert…silence is golden! And silence is so productive! I loved the following lines…
“Thoughts echo profoundly

Stunning imagery! Beautiful work!
I got goosebumps reading your poem. I do really venerate silence and I think it is sometimes a choice. Personally, I loathe my strident surroundings and I choose to be silent that’s why I can relate.
I loved the vocabulary and the imagery. The poem is really soothing and it somehow put my mind at ease. Thank you so much for this inspiring piece !!
Thank you! 😀
I was aiming to explore silence in a more appreciative way where creativity reigns free, rather than simply being the symptom of fear or anxiety and judging from your views I guess I achieved that.
