Silence - II

The waves of the sea
Come crashing against me
And I patiently take it all in silence

Drops heavy in rain
Come splattering against me
And I hungrily drink it all in silence

Drops weighed by pain
Meander slowly against my cheek
And I sadly wipe them away in silence

A lash of anger
Comes bursting against me
And I resignedly bear it all in silence

A wave of relief
Passes all through me
And I tremblingly thank the heavens in silence

Some silly words
Tickle my funny bone at work
And I supress my giggles in silence

Silence...
All surrounding, all pervading
All defining, all defying...

Silence
