A Silence Poem by XOR 999

A Silence



A silent separation starts with a silent rhyme
A silent day without a sunshine
A silent breathe without a life
A silent life no more I thrive
A silent symphony in broken parts
A silent music touching two hearts
at a silent time with a silent name
in a silent way writing a silent game

A silent game suffering a silent loss
A silent thought inside a silent cause
A silent drift towards an endless night
A silent eye watching the silent light
A silent voice that burns to be heard
A silent choice silenced by this earth
A silent path towards a faceless dream
A silent fear inside a silent realm
A silent verdict inside a silent court
A silent sin inside a silent fort
A silent secret inside a silent lie
sleeps silently beneath this paralyze

My silent walk on a silent dusk
with a silent breeze and a silent luck
A silent street and a silent crowd
A silent demise all through out
A silent gaze to this incomplete picture
A silent tale without a scripture
This silent fall has ripped me through
with a silent call to face whats true

Dear Raj, Thanks for your feedback and patience for reading my poems .. its a good point that you have placed about the redundancy of the silent word.. and situations... may be a shorter version would have been reader friendly, ... I am quite a newbie in writing poems so its good that experienced campaigners like you guide out the right way! ... thanks again, ,

Hi XOR 999 The poem has many lovely and sophisticated situations all expressed so subtly and beautifully: A silent game suffering a silent loss A silent thought inside a silent cause I wonder if the poem could have been shorter as, personally, I found the sustained and long list of 'silent' situations quite demanding on myself as a reader.

Hi XOR 999 a sophisticated poem with deep thought as in the lines: A silent drift towards an endless night A silent eye watching the silent light A silent gaze to this incomplete picture A silent tale without a scripture At some point, I feel, due to its sustained lines, the poem becomes a little too demanding and requires too much of effort on the reader's part... The situations though (as in the lines I've quoted above from your poem) , are interesting and well-expressed...
