When Light Finds Silence

A quiet moment where light meets water, and silence speaks the loudest.

By osam khanPublished 6 months ago 1 min read
In a world that rarely pauses, this poem captures a rare and gentle stillness — the moment sunlight brushes the surface of a quiet pond. Through soft imagery and emotional depth, When Light Finds Silence explores the beauty in silence, memory, and the golden hush that changes everything, even if just for a moment.

When Light Finds Silence

by [Osam khan]

The sun does not shout—

it whispers on the water,

a hush over the quiet pond

where time forgets to move.

Leaves still,

like they’re holding breath,

and I — I wait for nothing

but the shimmer of stillness.

A dragonfly hovers,

its wings catching fire

in a language I can’t speak

but somehow remember.

There’s no music,

yet everything sings—

the light,

the breeze,

even my silence.

For a moment,

nothing hurts.

The past softens,

the future dissolves.

All that remains

is this:

a golden sigh of sun

on the skin of water—

and the peace

I didn’t know I needed.
