When Silence Speaks
When silence speaks, the noisy listens
Even the turbid sky glistens
To lend ears to the mighty voice
That robs the rightful of their choice
For, when it speaks, it compels season
To fight for reign of the right reason
It brings more meaning than the tongue
And vision cherished by the young
It compels favor from the mighty
Like the solemn voice of the almighty
For, it strikes the depth of heart
To lend its warmness from the start
When silence speaks, it commands conviction
It hits the hard heart of devotion
Like an implied common agreement
That needs no sound and no movement
