The Frozen City moves quietly
Time dims in realms of thoughtlessness
Passion lingers in soft sheets of cloud
Memories blur into forgotten universe
Colors fade on streets of empty souls
Oceans whisper of decayed secrets
Wind echoes of fractured promises
And only the silence is reminiscent of the noise
We listen and notice the absence of sound
Sounds like it would go well with a poem I wrote earlier today, titled “Learning to Breathe”.
I also happened across a quote that I think goes well with your poem, intending to look up something else your poem made me think of.
Here’s the quote –
“If everyone thought before they spoke the silence would be deafening”
– George Barzan
Interesting quote-how did you find it?
Can I find your poem on your blog?
I remembered that there is a line in an underoath song that says “the silence is deafening”, and I couldn’t remember what the rest of lyrics were, and was curious. As I was typing in “Silence deafening” into google, I saw some suggested search results pop up, so on a whim, I added “quote” to the search, as apparently there are quotes with that idea. I found the quote in the preview snippet of the second search result… that’s more of a technical response that you were probably wanting to know, sorry lol
Yes, to make it easier to find, here’s a link – http://fergusandthedruid.wordpress.com/2013/12/07/new-fibonacci-poem-learning-to-breathe/
