Silence

Silence...
All but the sound of nothing,
a sound not worth lusting,
but yet some still want it.
Because silence is just as beautiful
as it is dreadful.
The beauty of silent suns and stars,
that make us realize how small we are.
The beauty of a pregnant mother,
who cant hear her child but would have no other.
We seem to focus more with silence,
when the world is at a balance.
shhhh... do you hear that?
Thump, Thump, Thump, Thump...
That is the sound of your heart
from which all love and life starts.
The beautiful sound of our silent still heart
keeps us as a whole from falling apart.
So is silence bad? Or is silence good?
How would you see silence, if you could?
