Silence,

 You are my soundless song

which I was waiting to hear

I would say, for a so long time

It may be, throughout my existence!

It seemed,

only I can communicate

and translate to the words

I opened my eyes but,

in the deeper silent night

or in the midst of the darkness

 I found only the emptiness

When I am alone

like a little mushroom

over the dewy green grass

shining in the moonlight
showering on the lonely earth,

You were there ! You were there

You whispered to my ear

and breathed to hear you near

I knew it is tangible, it is sweet

like a sweet-smelling aroma

I heard your voice

which filled with the immense peace

that flooding the joy never cease 

Myriads of stars

blooming in the sky

Like thousands smiles

Gazing for a while

Silence, be by the side of me

and breath into my empty life!  

My heart is tuned

to play a song of soul
This is the perfect night
to fly high like a kite
