One Tick of Silence
Posted on 01. Jun, 2006 by Barry Hurd in Coffee - Volume One, Defiant, Spiritual
Subtle thoughts I heard you well
This room so silent as if in grief
No rustling disturbance of life going on
Patience in the quiet and waiting so brief
Â
A place so open without drifting sounds
Peaceful as the dreams I’m thinking now
Never making noise so these thoughts drown
Hearing not the sound of believing how
Â
Penchant for dreaming does this silence bring
Whispers never heard and probably imagined
I’m listening to echoes of wandering things
These sounds that end before they begin
Â
Can these dreams of subtle noises be mine
Are they dancing in shadows and rhyme
When do these phantoms reveal what they do
These nights are numbered, a clock tick in time
