Through a settled spirit <br />A wandering mind, <br />And calm of my conscious <br />Inside my head I heard silence <br />Saying, <br />“From the beginning of time, till eternity <br />The sun never says ‘you owe me’ <br />For giving life and its warmth <br />Through its light to planet earth” <br /> <br />Silence spoke, <br />“Never expect from others to get <br />For into pain dreams will melt <br />Your inner light will turn to darkness <br />To shine as it ceases <br />When there is no one something to give <br />Even a smile… <br />So learn to be like the sun” <br /> <br />Silence spoke <br />Through its unspoken words <br />That sprung from the depth of my conscious <br />As I contemplate in the abyss of silence <br />This great saying- <br />“Even after all these years the sun never said to the earth you owe me” <br />Never expect.<br /><br />Fasika Ayalew<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/silence-spoke/
