SILENCE WITHIN
The quest of life, this quest of mine,
the realms we searched,
perhaps in vain,
the cosmic silence took us on the wings
to those worlds where
even the sun could not keep his fire burning.
Such silences that led us on
and left us breathless,
the silence of the end of all endings.
The silence of the sun, the silence of the sea,
the silence of the mind that neither imagines
nor affirms...
the silence after the delusion ends and the wonder begins,
the silence before the ascent begins and the silence after it ends,
Silence : when was it volitional
and when was it not a visitation of a voice within?
