What’s in Silence

What’s in the silence, so softly it stays,
Speaking the truth when sound drifts away.
What’s in the tone, a whisper, a guide,
When words fall short, it’s the soul inside.

What’s in the lips, unspoken yet true,
When the eyes can’t tell, they reach through to you.
What’s in the mind, when the heart grows frail,
A strength that endures when all else might fail.

What’s in you, when the world seems to fall?
The light that rises, the answer to all.
You win with the world, but the secret to begin:
Make others shine, and the world will win.

The Day one

They say, stop seeking awards, rewards—
Focus on work, not applause.
Be rooted in self, but not selfish,
Hold love, but let go, as they wish.

Am I hearing sounds without song?
Missing notes where silence belongs?
Am I here to wonder, not just wander,
A questioner, an eternal ponder?

If this truth must guide my run,
Isn’t it better I know, Day One?

Fulfilment

Why do my words not reach a few,
Yet linger, unbidden, in others too?
Why some hearts build echoing walls,
While others soar where freedom calls?

Is it the paradox of root and sky,
To feel the earth, yet yearn to fly?
Is it the way they let it grow—
A wild, untamed, unbridled show?

To tame the mind, a life confined,
Or let it wander, raw, unaligned?
Perhaps fulfillment lies between,
The rooted depths and the wild unseen.
