Stillness Speaks.

Pulled apart in every direction,
choices…duties…commitments…rights...
demands…desires…expectations..
sapped, I flop down at the crossroads.
Stillness speaks.

Numb at the world,
frozen bonds…Deceiving loves…disappointing friends…
despise…deride…insensate…
I close me within myself.
Stillness speaks.

Stampede all around…
screams…cries…whines...
accusations…explanations…
buried in cacophony, I go silent.
Stillness speaks.

Struggle to survive,
plannings…logics…desperation…
whirling images… past…present… future…
I surrender to ‘Now’.
Stillness Speaks.
