Absolute Silence

March 15, 2014

People talk, but are submerged in absence.

People laugh, but are encompassed by hate.

The only time people can be people is in absolute silence.

For when silence is obstructed, infinite contradictions occur.

Contradictions that can only lead to an infinite flux of emotional based action.

For emotions are only derivations of the universal constant love.

Love is everywhere and can be perceived at all times.

The only time people can be people is in absolute silence.

For when there’s absolute silence love resonates purely unfiltered.

Then people can be people.
