I Am The Silence

A Poem by Wendi Murphy

By Wendi MurphyPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

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 words

The space between paragraphs

I am the pause between thoughts

The stillness between heartbeats

I am golden radiance

Enveloping all

Not able to be held

Broken time and time again

I Am The Silence
