Silence: What I Am

If it be food that i cannot enjoy, If it be a cold shower that i cannot endure, If it be a dream that i cannot conjure, If it be a thought; one upon which i cannot ponder, Malice, love, are all the same to me If sweet SILENCE i do not receive Call me a monster, i can walk that shame an ogre in no need of fame but one you can tame with ease. Step over me, slander me, spite my name for all that i will take, till u can hurt me no more but let SILENCE be my gift. All i ask for and give is SILENCE for with it i find solace it drives me to counter your malice. In it i feed your hate and quench your jealousy. With it i fight with my hands tied. With it victory i gain that which you require With it, am proud to be WHAT I AM 'A simple man with a simple mind'.
