Silent Thoughts

The music of silence,
My thoughts filling the void,
Lost lyrics,
Bringing up moments,
Memories of the past,
A waterfall of emotions,
Victories won,
Faces long forgotten,
And other bubbling brooks,
Tributaries of the present,
Flowing to the ocean,
Their pace providing the rhythm
To foresee the future.

When alone in a crowd
Of people uncaring,
Words of noise uttered,
Piercing deep,
This silence returns to comfort,
Music muting all else,
Washing away the vile,
Writing the lyrics,
A rhythm that suits my mood,
Gushing out,
Wiping the canvas clean,
So that I can take a dip
In the surreal sea of thoughts again.
