Olusola Folarin Poet Lyric

Silence

Silence 
Can be the loudest of expressions 
Can be deafening 
Cannot be misquoted 
Yet, can be misunderstood 

In silence 
I am mastering the art of a swimming duck
I am mastering the taming of my tongue 
I am paddling troubled waters 
Yet, seem calm

When silent 
I tend to calm my anger
I tend to see things in a different perspective 
I tend to empathise.
Yet, long to rub minds

Silence 
A time to be silent 
A time to break the silence 
A tool in effective communication 
Yet, can build or break relationships
