The world of sounds surrounds me
In the whirlpool of roaring waves
The external noises clash
With the internal sound of silence
Unheard by these ears.
Yet the melody is on and on
The ringing of bells
The drums of destiny
Beat in rhythm with the heartbeat.
And ceaselessly they keep ringing
To awaken me from the slumber
To enjoy the ecstasy
Of the uncaptured moments
That pass by me in my lifetime
As I am ignorant to those
For I am deaf, as I hear not
The sounds of silence.
