Silence is Golden


Silence is golden. But talk is cheap. Does that mean the quiet are rich? And the social ones weak? Then why is it that society Places the price on the head Of the one with a smile And an empty head? After all it is the silent That can speak, And leave a room speechless. Leaving words that will Stick in your heart But rest assured That when you're home And tucked in your beds The silence I caused Will be stuck in your head. That quiet so baffling, Will seem to be the one laughing. That is why silence is golden Silence is a statement So bold it could not be spoken. Yet it's a sentence Beyond every word That whispers in your head, Yes, I have SPOKEN.
