"The Higher he soar, the smaller we appear to those who cannot fly."


Silence is not an emptiness
But a fullness
Like a bucket filled to the brim
With water

Silence fills the room like a shadow
Like a monster that children fear
That lives under their bed
But when they grow older
They see that there’s nothing there

Silence is pure and true
The whiteness fills a room
Like a painter that fills a canvas
With a beautiful painting
Worth a million dollars

Silence is life
Not death
