Silence

Silence is an absence,
Silence is profound,
Silence is a conversation,
Being had without sound,
Silence is an expression,
One that can't be heard,
Silence can't be spoken
Although it's still a word
Silence is a presence,
Of great nothingness,
Silence can be something,
And yet ceases to exist,
Silence can fill a room,
Yet have no mass at all
Silence can't be dropped,
But you can hear it fall,
Silence is a mystery
That will forever go unsolved,
Silence is how every sound,
Can swiftly be dissolved,
Silence is the sound of rest
The only sound that can sound best
While other sounds can cause great pain
Silence is not the sound to blame
For silence is what silence is
A something that is nothing,
A nothing that still exists.
As if to tell us something.
