Stillness Doesn’t Shout

The best music
happens between the bars
Stillness doesn’t shout
 
Step outside
Breathe free air
Notice the scaffolding
holding everything up
 
Most people
only see it
when the building collapses
 
Great symphonies
are written
by leaving bars empty
 
No rush.
No forced chorus
where it doesn’t belong
 
Breathe
 
Show up to conversations
unarmoured
Honest
 
Open your soul
to other viewpoints
 
Remove the filter
from your lens
Overexpose
Catch every fragment
of the spectrum
 
Only then
does the rainbow appear
