To Think In Silence

As I in silence think, memories come They flilter through the fog within my mind I hear distant sounds, like a beating drum And watch in awe, to the pictures I find To have sought beauty as I passed through time And replay each scene without fear or doubt And watch them dance, as they begin to climb To farthest realms as memory fades out This silence now dark becomes a rushing tide With welling waves from tears that never fell Awash in time, where memories reside Finds my mirrored mind where reflections dwell To feel time pass, not understand its cause To see the sunrise, a moment to pause
