LEVELS OF SILENCE

Anastasia_Rose

Silence. 

A place of feeling trapped, overwhelmed, and reactive.

Swirling thoughts, impending danger, analyzing every noise. The TV drowns the silence. 

Interrupts the delusion through distraction and eases the mind. 

Silence.

A place of feeling free, relaxed, and stable. 

Flowing thoughts, ascending peace, oblivious to every disruption. The silence amplifies the internal life.

Interrupts the delusion through distraction and eases the mind.

  • Comment from author about the poem: It’s interesting to reflect upon how we cope with silence. This is the one space in which we are completely ourselves with no influence. I discuss the interruption of delusion which begs the question: Is silence an escape from reality or an escape to reality? Some food for thought! Please feel free to share what you think

    silence
    is one of the most powerful weapons
    we have to wield
    we need only embrace it, make it ours
    ...
    thanks for sharing
    indeed, a thought provoking read
