Can you Hear the Silence

Can you hear the silence

I yearn for the silence to hear me

I run from the noise that assaults me

I breathe but my breath can’t hear me


I live for the silence that lives within the trees

We’re so used to the noise that silence scares us

I get anxious when the silence confronts me

I am afraid to not hear a sound around me

Make some noise to make him go away


Can you Hear the Silence

I yearn for the silence be near me

I run from the noise that’s around me

I breathe but my breath can’t hear me

I live for the silence that’s lives within me


We’re so used to the noice that silence scares us
I grow so frightened when the noise leaves me

I need silence but he can’t hear me

I grow so frightened when the noise leaves me

I need silence but he don’t hear me

I grow so frightened when the noise leaves me
