Blurring Resolution

Swimming in a sea of grey…

Looking for a face to recognize-

I look and then look away  

From eternity in your eyes…

Drowning in the growing crowd,

Watching darkness swirling in the drain-

The noise is blaring too loud-

For me to feel the throbbing pain…

Dimming noise recalls the ache…

Outstretching emptiness in offered hand…

Line blurring between real and fake-

As I try to understand.

Teetering between love and fear- 

Screaming silently into the void…

Thoughts merge into a single tear,

And quiet becomes a ringing noise.

Searching for resolution-

Finding there is none that can be found,

Yet in creation’s revolution-

I learn that silence is a sound…
