HENRI NOUWEN:
"Somewhere we know that without silence words loose their meaning, that without listening, speaking no longer heals, that without distance, closeness cannot cure."
The hush that falls upon our ears
Leaves us ample time to ponder
Continuous voices from our own lips.
Leave critical words hanging in the air
So many turn and walk away
Frustrated not to be heard
Without the silence for opposing voices
Only our own perspective will linger there
