HOURS OF SILENCE

Silence is golden as they say
but do we know its value ?
it couldn't lead us to anything
nor could it lead us out

Amidst a thousand hearts ,
I chose to be silent
given an hour to me
make it seem like a day.

Does this silence really matter,
to me or to you?
when i could think of someone
and compare silence and time.

From the wee hours of the day
to the enthralling beauty of the stars
I can hear the silence
the moment the sound stops.

I would love to speak
but only when you halt
and when your eyes speak out
this silence speaks so loud
