Silence

Silence would,
If it ever caught me,
Be more oppressive
Than any sound.

I’m not sure that
I could ever
Consent to stand still
And let him by.

When with one simple deed
I could end my suffering
And get rid of Silence
For a moment.

By making a sound
I win but a moment,
But I can make music
Forever.
