it is in silence <br />that we identify <br />sounds as other than noise! <br /> <br />it is in bondage <br />that we identify freedom <br />as more than a dream. <br /> <br />it is in lonliness <br />that we identify love <br />as both the path and the journey. <br /> <br />it is in anger <br />that we identify forgiveness <br />as the release. <br /> <br />it is in despair <br />that we identify hope <br />as one foot after the other. <br /> <br />it is in death <br />that we identify life <br />and give it meaning!<br /><br />Eric Cockrell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/we-identify/
