Silence 'Rumi'

Silence is gold and an art of great conversation,
It is more eloquent than words and often the severest criticism.
Silence is wisdom and a perfect expression,
It is modesty or even irritation.

It speaks words ,
though none are spoken.
It shatters hearts,
Though none are broken.

Silence is peace,like rivers in an ocean,
Each river has infinite gestures but the ocean remains unshaken.
It shows consent and is the unbearable harm,
One faces different answers though some act like a protecting balm.

It can create a world or even destroy two,
It is the best answer and is often true.

Silence is charismatic and charming,
Still we don't know if it is harming.
It takes great devotion and patience,
To build the mystical world of SILENCE...
