Let the Silence

The silence permeates
For I would rather silence
Than have conversations
On dissatisfaction
Aiding your constant search
For self pity and superiority

The silence permeates
For I would rather silence
Than talk aimed at demeaning
Struggling complicated humans
Punishing them for lack of knowledge
Knowledge we are in wanting of

The silence still permeates
For I would rather silence
To consider and access
Responsibilities to reality
Clarify and assimilate
Information for the future

The silence will permeate
For I would rather silence
Than witness you
Putting yourself as centre
Of a universe still non-existent
For with silence
You may in turn realise
All the time we have lost
And how it can be found
