Lying in bed just thinking


Silence

Silence and yet I’m not alone,
Silence and yet I am on my own,
Silence and thoughts come unbound,
Silence is that the absence of sound,
Silence and yet there is noise all around,
Silence but I hear breathing
Silence is that what I’m needing
Silence but can’t hear myself think
Silence...................
