Waking To New Dawn, Its Deafening Roar of Silence

[SIZE=5][B]Waking To New Dawn, Its Deafening Roar Of Silence[/B][/SIZE] Then there are words that we fear to ever openly say Like how our past view of life-this evil world, sets our paths askew Like icicles crashing down into a bottomless gray And those things we fear to face because they are new- A move from peace and comfort into a faraway place Or valleys, one so rightly would fear to ever tread And death's unwelcomed blow with its monstrously wicked face Or perhaps even greater, when we face - lonely silence instead. Robert J. Lindley, 3-16-2022 ( Facing The Infinite Depths Of The Void )

As you rightly conclude your itemisation of fears, perhaps the lonely silence holds the greatest threat to life. I hope that your powerful word have some cathartic effect for you, Robert.
