“This silence you crave…”

Not Your Everyday “Shhh!”

Inside your everyday world (I feel bad for you…and me too)

This silence you crave ain’t really straightforward Gotta be scented and warm Fine-tuned by preferences that present effortless Easy in its emptiness As comfortable and cherished as steamed conveniences at 5:30 in the morning pre-programmed against grievances

A quiet so soft it’s a cushion The purest combed cotton 100% coziness The connected concealed comma in all those unread sentences The embrace with just the right amount of pressure and the right length A tranquility from the ethers offering ‘curled-up concentrations’ and YUP — just the right amount of strength

A sanctum that surrounds A sentience that profounds

in a world where deficits be downright overpowering I’d cleave to such calm a spiritual curtain for showering a requisite cleanse for nominal function when freedom gets swallowed in desperation gulps and secrecy a sacredness deemed incongruent

This silence that craves you is filled with endless evergreen lush moment mystery opulence often masquerading in a hush to caress assaulted spirits where noise permeated unimpeded

Behold the space where the pendulum swings back

and inner turmoil gets conceded That altar of unconditional surrender instills seclusion within your soul A pacification needed when daily living takes daily toll No explanations necessary No criteria and no test Simply unadulterated serenity for the weary wanting rest

Symbols transform to sapphire Seconds fuel meditation’s fire No price tag for this kind of peace Cast cares aside and commit the mind to f r e e f a l l

Divine being in [defined flesh] never was your heart thus fashioned to beat at robotic pace Your realms belong to galactic spheres celestial eternities and a whole different kind of grace

Noise pollution wasn’t a phrase I heard much growing up. Figures, right? Silence could be found all around in abundance. Once something gets ‘labeled,’ it speaks volumes. Human beings now have to travel much farther afield to find real rejuvenative quiet like nature intended due to, well…human beings.

Be a voice for protection. Prevention. Our bodies, minds, and souls NEED this.

It’s NOT too late.

I appreciate the time you’ve taken to read my poem. Please accept my heartfelt thanks and a virtual fist pump.
