Silence

Silence
silence is my companion
when the world
gets busied in noise
and plays with gods
dead or alive
blind or bankrupt
I close my mind
plus bank account
to retreat into silence
to speak
to my soul
letting my cheap desires
settle into my tiny world
quiet, senseless, and relative
non-responsive to the rat-race
(although I am not expected to say so) 
To me
silence breeds
love and life.

    Sometimes we all need a place of silence to reflect, regenerate, and be at peace with ourselves. Nice write.
