Love Poem: Silence

Silence

When the words were intense
and the soul no longer 
conceded to comfort 
Thoughts got blind 
and the heart beats in tension 
Silence
*****
Absent are ardent 
words
an inability to fill gaps 
meanings suspended
seasons slowly stretching 
Silence
*****
A thin veil
hiding behind 
a thick weight 
suppressing many a 
sound
Silence
*****
Deeply delving into a void
seeking the significance 
of a still word
trying to explain an unexplained 
world 
Silence
*****
Observing, absorbing 
the aura of silence 
touching its vibrant 
presence 
perceivable, palpable
Silence 
*****
Pausing in peace
treasuring tranquillity 
allowing the soul
to such a state admire
sinking in a serene space
Silence
