Nothing That Still Exists

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Silence is an absence. Silence is profound. Silence is a conversation being had without sound. Silence is an expression One that cannot be heard. Silence cannot be spoken Although it is a word. Silence is a presence of great nothingness. Silence can be something And yet cease to exist. Silence can fill a room and have no mass at all. Silence cannot be dropped Yet it can fall. Silence is a mystery that will forever go unsolved. Silence is how every sound can swiftly be dissolved. Silence is the sound of rest, the only sound that can sound best. While other sounds can cause great pain, silence is not the sound to blame. Silence is what silence is— something that is nothing, nothing that still exists.
