Our Silence

All are born in silence;
giving life to silence,
giving scorn to silence,
giving light to silence,
the fight for silence,
my silence,
your silence
our silence-

dies at birth, 
and is born again
in death.

Interesting poem and so very true Sometimes its so hard for us to be silent and introduce ourselves with who we are.
