Noise of Silence



I
---

She comes
To answer
The questions

Yet all I hear
Is the noise
Of silence


II
---


The silence
Talked to me

Pointed out
Truths of life
And death

The dead
Can live forever
The living
Can perhaps be dead

Alone
At leisure
Just listen
And decipher

Make sense of
The noise of silence

    Your poem reminded me of Sunanda Pushkar.
    I especially love these words-
    "The dead
    Can live forever
    The living
    Can perhaps be dead"

  6. Beautifully written.Absolute poetic justice to silence. Not everybody can pierce through the shroud of silence.
    Silence is the unshakable and unwavering voice that can be heard only to the unalloyed souls.
