Silence

In the storm I seek
That quiet spot of oblivion
Whose sigh of momentary relief
Belies the ominous eye that bequeaths
The sound of silence

The winds of time
Engulf the ocean of serenity
I am caught
A tiny sailor on boiling seas

But within my cabin
The doors are shut
Music drowns the howling winds
My safe harbour lies within

But the knocks are insistent
Finally I relent
Tearing down the walls
I allow Chaos to come in
She smiles beatifically

I open myself to her and she overwhelms me
Leading me to the very edges of the universe itself
Where Logic and Reason are destroyed

But even in that place between Space and Time
To my wonder I still do find
The sounds of silence that I once thought lost
Now come to be eternally mine
