So many words
From deep within the mind
That translating it to others
Fall on deaf ears

In such magic that tears fall
Into the moisture of knowledge
Deep penetrations of the mind
Coming forth with profound statements
But alas to no avail
For nobody is listening

In brain storming
Electrifying your senses
Frying thoughts
Feeling in new sensations
So volatile is the combination
That words explodes out of you
With the force of the
Energy hidden within
But finding a void
Imploding back
In total silence

But a true poet
Always makes his audience
Think of the beauty of originality
For in their creativity
Which drives them
Wandering on endless paths
The sounds from within them
Will always find a way to be heard
Even in to most silent place
Of other peoples mind

Thought: A poet words can get lost in time, to only get pick up later and be really enjoyed.

Though not a sound is made, your thoughts echo through the collective consciousness.  Thanks for sharing.
