Silence. Part 1.

Why is silence important to me?

What does silence mean to me?

I used to not know what silence was

What did it require?

What was it?

To silence the mind?

To be quiet?

To not talk?

To not fill the space?

To hold back?

As I sit with this

I ask, what is necessary to convey?

What is needed to share?

To be spoken

To be said

To bring into this moment

What is the desire?

What is behind the words?

Is it that silence is uncomfortable?

That you are uncomfortable in silence

With silence

Why it is that you have to share, have to say something?

To be seen

Acknowledged

Heard

Be paid attention to

Why are you sharing?

Are you aware of this?

Are you aware of the power of your voice?

That which you say

That which you birth

That which leaves your lips and remains in minds

Are you aware of this?

Are you aware of this power?

Yes, this is why silence is important to me, because of the power of words.
