The Unheard Sound

So vast in it’s scope
but silent is it’s sound
everything stops nothing heard
deafening indeed like lifeless hound

The human ear wait’s so eagerly
stretching itself for to listen
wanting a sound in their eardrum
but that’s nothing just simply missing

In this unheard silent sound
one feels such peace so still
thinking the world has stopped
don’t be fooled silence always will

(Silent thoughts and what it means to me)
