Silent Symphony

Silence came to pick at me Mirrored my hypocrisy Selfless greed I pleaded then The fearful need to then repent All I am and could have been What I was and should have seen In an instant through my mind On my knees the glass will shine Reflections singing of a soul Through the darkness light is shown A symphony of quiet sounds Through the silence I am found What is gone has stilled my dreams What’s to come will stifle me A deeper hope that I can be Everything I need to see A moment in the mirror’s past A thousand years to see at last The only truth beyond this walk The loving place we always sought
