Silence!! if Expressed!!

The Sound of Silence

Eruption of unspoken thoughts

heard by heart

screamed inside

louder than words.

Roars of mind,

humming of brain, and

vibration of soul

assassinate words.

Utterances sans words

loudest of all thunderclaps -

Hush! Hush!

Whispers of Nostalgia!

Feeble cry of fluttering heart

can you hear?

It is a language

for heart to heart.

Find its meaning -

Blissful quietness

offering solace to soul

called peace within.

It’s as mute as a dumb flute

playing voiceless melodies

breaking the sigh of breathing breeze

filling the void with desolate rhythms.

Decipher that silence -

a grave threat,

a deadly weapon,

a mortal curse.

Reply of zipped lips

unlocking doors of solitude

with zero reaction as

self-healing.

A few strike out without map or chart, Where never a man has been, From the beaten path they draw apart To see what no man has seen. There are deeds they hunger alone to do; ...

Rabindranath Tagore - Where the Mind is Without Fear – Gitanjali 35

Rabindranath Tagore - Where the Mind is Without Fear – Gitanjali 35 Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high; Where knowledge is free; Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls; Where words come out from the depth of truth; Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection; Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit; Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.
