Silence


Silence

Silence creeps into me
  settles in anxious place
  as if jittery caffeine
  floods warmth within me

Silence washes
  bleaches stained mind
  renews my hearts
  restores my soul

Silence allows me
  to hear beauty
  babbling streams
  quiets busy thoughts

Silence sharpens vison
  to see sharper
  further into heart
  fog lifts in light's warmth

Silence tears down my
  my walls
  one anxious
  block at a time

Silence invites peace
  baptizes in joy
  cleanses shame
  new flesh's raw beauty
