silent is the sound

There is a silence where hath been no sound,
In the cold grave deep beneath the ground
a single desecration were the life beat has gone still
which has been muted, and now sleeps profound
no life beats withing this ground, no hushed voice to be found
that never spoke over the idle sound
but outside these desolute walls
Of antique palaces, where Man hath been,
silence no more, peace has fled
seek not the echo, for in this place alone
There the true Silence is, self-conscious and alone.

"There the true Silence is, self-conscious and alone."
Wonderful line pulls the whole thing together never was a truer statement I like it very much I was a little thrown off at first with the topic then found the depth in it and wow I am surprised I love it when that happens lol
Thank you for your words.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
