When breath meets tongue
And words are spoken
The world who knows my voice
Really only hears Ego
When the cogs are spinning
And thoughts are woven
Filling the space between my ears with prose
Ego is telling me stories
The world knows me by my words
I know myself by my thoughts
But I know neither of these
To be the me that longs to be
I am the breath between paragraphs
The space between words
I am the pause between thoughts
The stillness between heartbeats
I am golden radiance enveloping all
Filled with limitless potential
Heavy with anticipation
Waiting to be seized
I am your awkward companion
Versed in uncomfortable moments
Not able to be held
Broken time and time again
I Am The Silence
