    IN SILENCE by Raymond Carlos Baltazar

    How can I understand this silence?

    In silence,
    the sound is deafening
    leaving me blank as I was caught
    staring at the voidness of the dark.
    Wish it will rain and as the droplets
    flash into my face,
    Soon I will forget the cacophony it brings
    I must simply dive into the potency of oblivion
    But I know,
    after all the noise my ears will finally shutdown
    and let silence grows like a benign tumor
    unable to paralyze my humanness.

    In silence,
    the music is piercing
    catching the lyric of every song
    making me tranquil like a baby
    listening to my mother's lullaby
    as she sings humming,breathing.
    Consoling my entire being
    telling me I am home
    I am safe.I am secured.

    In silence,
    I can hear every murmur
    like a powerful prayer always waiting for a reply,
    like a choral mantra always lifting my senses
    so potent as a magical chant
    so strong as the end will start
    and the cycle continues,
    Reaching eternity as if knowing
    no boundaries
    My edge is my faith in humanity and beyond.

    In silence,
    I can only ask myself
    Looking introvertly I just cannot see me,
    Perhaps,I am afraid to know the real me
    and yet,I can mirror myself smiling,
    giggling and even laughing.
    My sense of duty is to tickle my world
    bringing endless laughter
    savoring my precious daughter.
    In silence,
    I persevere to grant wishes
    Hoping I can end,at least,temporal sadness
    and brings forth permanent gladness.
    I maybe brutally frank
    but I can give a warm advice point-blank.

    How can I ever comprehend with silence?

    I think in time....still green,but who Am I to judge?I started out this way,take out a few un-important words,in fact take out as many words as you can...you will be so surprised at how much more proffessional it looks,I need to take my own advice on this one,sometimesI forget and my poem ode to a marshmallow moon is in no ways very pro...just my goofy mood! good luck I like you...the poem almost a yawn.
