Even my clothes envelope me, doing me no favors as I am unable to scream for if I do- it's eyes are on m...

It can be melancholy
It can be reflective

It can be powerful
But most of all
It can be still
A dark place where the only sound is your own heartbeat and silent shadows seem to jump out at you
A moment of respite after a long day of interacting with people when you can deliberately bask in the hush and clear your mind
A sense of aloneness in a ...
I find no comfort in silence. Silence is the all encompassing tune that plays in our souls. It is the wordless smiles and thoughtless actions. Or is it?
See this, I know to be true, contrary to popular belief, silence is not the absence of sound. In fact, it is the absence of whimsy.
Without whimsy, the world is cold and cruel. Without playfulness, the world is lost. Without joyful noise the wo...
