Silence

Let us now praise the minor moments between words where the most is spoken, where
The lies spread lie thin, almost enough to crack but never do, where
Adept ears can catch what the conversation is truly about but the uninitiated and foolhardy stumble, where
The true conversation of hearts can happen but
Only if your head and heart are clean for if so then an entire conversation
Can take place
In a realm where
Words crumble.
