the silence is beautiful

  
 
light leaves the  
eyes  
   
thoughts leave  
the mind  
   
breath leaves  
the body  
   
skin leaves the  
bones  
   
the silence is  
beautiful  
   
we are given  
nothing  
   
we are robbed  
of nothing  
   
the wind keeps  
moving,  
mindless,  
without  
passion  
   
the rain keeps  
falling,  
blindly,  
madly  
   
night and day,  
day and night,  
night and day  
comes and    
goes  
   
and the sun and  
moon smiles  
sweetly  
   
streets are filled    
with the insanity  
of the many
 
stealing,
murdering  
   
each    
wanting,  
wanting,  
wanting  
   
and never  
having  
   
each person  
a fortresses    
of loneliness-  
   
a oasis of madness  
and  
desperation-  
   
never  
understanding  
   
lights leave the  
eyes  
   
thoughts leave  
the mind  
   
breath leaves    
the body  
   
skin leaves the    
bones  
   
we are given  
nothing  
   
we are robbed  
of nothing  
   
and    
finally-

all the noise
that mattered
matters
not

and
   
the silence  
is  
beautiful
