The Sound of Silence
The Sound of Silence
I asked for silence,
But I didn’t mean a word.
I asked for silence,
But I did not mean
Not to be heard.
I asked for quiet,
But I wasn’t wishing.
I asked for quiet
But I did not wish
Not to be seen.
I begged for silence,
I begged to make it stop.
I prayed for peace
And the answer I got
Was silent, but not without words.
Like leaves in the woods, falling unheard,
But not without sound, the sound of silence.
Just like that
Is how I wanted
My world to be quiet.
