The monotony and solitude of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind. Albert Einstein
When whisperers are seen and colors are heard
The lullaby is green, and my nose is full of earwax
During quiet times, we look inside sans uttering a word
Dare to be quiet in the midst of the cacophony of backs
Rain or serenity cannot quell the throbbing soul
No attempt was made to clog the abyss with a rule
I've heard lulls and views, and tone is an ageless goal
In my mind, your idioms and visuals are chilly dews
As I rubbed my heart over yours, I felt pain in my views
Compassion was strong, whereas anger ruined hues
Striving to shine in solar flares, a suffering of a nerd
No words remain; odd jives sway if we talk cracks
Quiet screams while fear looms down the flagpole
Silence never stops shouting, delighting the muse
