If the Silence is Loud Enough Will You Hear?

Nobody knew… he was so quiet about it.

Seemed to have it all together –

Nobody’s perfect, but he seemed ‘perfectly okay’.

He cried in solitude, he laughed with the crowd;

He wondered ‘why?’ in seclusion.

He wandered down the lonely path;

The corridor of destruction -

But he was lively and playful.  Or was he?

Nobody knew…

The silence was deafening,

Piercing the heart with intention;

As if to say ‘Will you listen now’?

Now that he’s gone.

They say ‘Actions speak louder than words’ –

But if the actions contradict, what then?

Listen to the silence, the hush, the calm –

It’s not always peaceful.

It’s blaring with need!

Now the world listens;

As the silence screams for attention –

But is it loud enough for you to hear?
