Silence

















Photo by Lee Swee Wei

No words to express
the hushed serenity of
listening to self
whilst immersed in the solitude
of our own isolation

In the vast expanse
of our mind, unspoken thoughts
mired in the mist
that pervades our memory
struggle hard to be free

Whispers from yesterday
tiptoe across the threshold
into our consciousness
bestowing enlightenment
with their revelations

The first part of this poem is written for a competition and I won the bronze trophy. Do you think I am troubled? I was even told that this is art.
