A Reflection

Silence

by adewpearl



When starlight sparkles and the skies are still,
my unspoken thoughts find their perfect home.
No sound breaks the silence and never will
so long as I keep my thoughts my own.

My unspoken thoughts find their perfect home
imperturbable in the peace of night.
So long as I keep my thoughts my own,
I can rest in the calm of the soft starlight.

Imperturbable in the peace of night -
even shooting stars dare not make a sound.
I can rest in the calm of the soft starlight
while the world continues to spin around.

Even shooting stars dare not make a sound
as they streak past Cassiopeia's throne.
While the world continues to spin around,
each star in the silence seems mine alone.

As they streak past Cassiopeia's throne,
can I watch them into infinity?
Each star in the silence seems mine alone,
sparkling gems of celestial tranquility.

Can I watch them into infinity -
limitless stars in a limitless sky?
Sparkling gems of celestial tranquility,
they'll outlast us all as time passes by.

Limitless stars in a limitless sky,
when starlight sparkles and the skies are still,
they'll outlast us all as time passes by -
no sounds break the silence and never will.

I'm in a quiet mood today - figured I'd repost a poem about that feeling for all my new friends who've joined Fan Story since I wrote this.
