In the well of silence

The mind’s a drop of defiance

It cannot exist on its own

Yet silence, it tries to disown

In the well of silence

Thoughts blare their sirens

They shatter the peace

The ego will not let them cease

In the well of silence

There are many diamonds

Their shimmering countenance

Brings weary seekers sustenance

In the well of silence

The clocks show the timeless

The mind preens its past

But silence cannot be surpassed
