Quiet
Silence is the answer to all known things,
Let no one tell you otherwise than this.
For peasants, common, wealthy, and for kings,
Peace is found in deadly, silent abyss.
Some believe that silence is a burden,
And that it will never be sufficient.
But words and noise are a vicious poison.
Delicious noise is one that is absent.
Song can be sweet, beautiful, and so bright,
But search for song is search for everything.
Silence makes no search, silence is finite.
And endless search is too much for bearing.
You must hush, young one, quiet is the key,
Make no words slip from thy lips, silent be.
