Speaking in Silence

The most intense emotions
are never spoken out loud
words in any language
become deficit when used

How can you describe
the love of a parent
the pain of a mute
the anger of a maimed

The crowd within a loner
the loner within a socialist
the revolution within a saint
or the hope within a pessimist?

Mere words..... spoken in any tongue
Submerge the increasing need within
to speak out feelings
And overrule human emotions

Rationale thoughts,
like a neat sloped flow
can be harnessed and expressed
unlike the hearts cries

Cries of anguish
cries of hope
cries of surprise
And cries of the soul

Silence, when called for
will express all this and more
for to any silent question
the answer can only be silence.
