Silence.
The world is silence.
Voices surround us all the time,
noises, sounds, endless whispers.
Always, the world is full of sounds.
Yet that sound is silence.
I hear nothing.
Nothing matters.
No sounds worth hearing,
No sounds worth even remembering.
Meaningless sounds.
Emptiness....
Waiting.....
Waiting for one sound,
in a world full of silence.
One sound in this world,
One sound in reality,
Not just a dream or vision,
but a true sound,
a sound of life!
A sound…
Spoken to me.....
From your soft mouth.....
From your soft lips....
A sound like no other.
What is the chance...
What is the chance to hear....
Hear that one thing...
Hear that one sound…
In a world full of silence.
Even my heart cries........ silently....
Waiting….
Waiting for you….
Ferry E. Gerkema
