“The world is quiet here.” by Lemony Snicket.
I wish this poem to be quiet
soft and subtle like a whisper
read the lines delicately
as if you were tip-toeing around
imagine a soft cottony pillow
and your head laying down for a rest
or picture yourself holding a lady bug
and trying to listen to the soft noises she makes
now imagine unbroken silence
just the sound of your breathing
the complete opposite of burning hell
and the inferno that tortures troubled souls
imagine that place of happiness
and can you bring me there with you
I wish to be set free
