Melody of Silence

In the quiet moments, I find peace,
A melody of silence, never to cease.
Unexpected, eternal, it plays its tune,
Symphony of beauty, under the moon.

The world halts, just outside my door,
I need you here, to feel it more.
Feelings as instruments harmonize,
In the silence’s melody, we realize.

A cacophony of nowhere so profound,
In infinity, where everything is found.
It overturns it all, in its gentle sway,
Life-affirming truth, in its silent play.

Simple yet complex, our melody sings
Ever-changing, like life’s many things.
In the silence, we find our song,
A timeless truth, where we belong.
