Silence

In the silence I lay. in the silence I wait. In the silence I can hear a still small voice. Like a whisper in the darkness- A whisper in my ear It stirs up my soul It stirs up my heart It stirs up my hope It gives life to these aching bones and renew a weary soul. It heals a broken heart and brings rest to a tired mind. It gives me new courage It gives me new strength. it gives me new life, for this one has end This voice, where does it come from and where does it go?
