Silent Words
Why you ignore those silent words; my heart was asking me
I don’t want to hurt myself; this was my reply to myself
Daily at night I ask many questions to myself
But the answers which I have; I don’t want to tell me
There is no one who completely knows me
Except my solitude, the darkness of my room and me
Sometimes our eyes become wet with tears because of too much laughing and we call these tears as tears of happiness and sometimes we laugh forcefully so that nobody can see the wetness of our eyes……. How strange we our? For two different extreme conditions we have same picture on our outer wall.
It was heavy raining and they were together, completely wet holding each other’s hands and staring towards me. I was also staring them for a long time; they were playing with each other and enjoying the rain suddenly I noticed that they are coming towards me. I was feeling that I know them very well but still there was a layer of forgetfulness on my mind. They were walking slowly towards me, their eyes were focused on me and I was also staring them without blinking my eyes. Suddenly I noticed that instead of walking now they are running towards me, now their faces were very much clear to me as they were not very far from me. I told myself that I know them; I know them very well because they are my best friends. They came nearer to me and start moving around me I have also noticed one strange thing that the rain has wet everything but still my cloths didn’t have even a drop of water on it. I look towards the sky and I find that it was clear but still the heavy rain was wetting everything except me, I was confused because the sky was clear then from where this rain is coming. Suddenly those two have whispered something in my ear and I came to know that it was raining inside me and they were my solitude and the darkness of my room.
I hate, I love
I feel, I ignore
I sleep, I awake
I run, I stop
I laugh, I scream
I talk, I silent
But sometimes at the same time
Feeling the moment slip away
Losing direction, you’re loosing faith
You’re wishing for someone,
Feeling it all begin to slide
Am I just like you?
All the things you do – can’t help myself…
How do you feel when there’s no sun?
And how will you be when rain clouds come and pull you down again?
How will you feel when there’s no one?
Am I just like you?
Turning to face what you’ve become,
Buried the ashes of someone
Broken by the strain
Trying to fill that space inside
Am I just like you?
All the things you do – can’t help myself
How do you feel when there’s no sun?
And how will you be when rain clouds come and pull you down again?
How will you feel when there’s no one?
Am I just like you?
All the things you do
Don’t ever feel that you’re alone
I’ll never let you down, I’ll never leave you dry
Don’t fall apart, don’t let it go
Carry the notion, carry the notion back to me, to me…
Feeling the moment slip away
Feeling the moment slip away
Cause I’m just like you
How do you feel when there’s no sun?
And how will you be when rain clouds come and pull you down again?
How do you feel when there’s no one?
Am I just like you?
There is no evanescence of you in me
As there is no shadow of me in you
There is no anger for you in me
As there is silence for me in you
There is everything of you in me
As there is nothing of me in you
I fear from that moment
When my words will become just words
I fear from that moment
When I will not able to give words to my thoughts
I fear from that moment
When my mind will start endless battle with my heart
I fear from that moment
When I will leave it (my heart) alone
“I wish these moment will never come in my life”
From those around I hear a Cry,
A muffled sob, a Hopeless sigh,
I hear their footsteps leaving slow,
And then I know my soul must Fly!
A chilly wind begins to blow,
within my soul, from Head to Toe,
And then, Last Breath escapes my lips,
It’s Time to leave. And I must Go!
So, it is True (But it’s too Late)
They said: Each soul has its Given Date,
When it must leave its body’s core,
And meet with its Eternal Fate.
Oh mark the words that I do say,
Who knows? Tomorrow could be your Day,
At last, it comes to Heaven or Hell
Decide which now, Do NOT delay !
Come on my brothers let’s pray
Decide which now, Do NOT delay !
Oh God! Oh God! I cannot see !
My eyes are Blind! Am I still Me
Or has my soul been led astray,
And forced to pay a Priceless Fee
Alas to Dust we all return,
Some shall rejoice, while others burn,
If only I knew that before
The line grew short, and came my Turn!
And now, as beneath the sod
They lay me (with my record flawed),
They cry, not knowing I cry worse,
For, they go home, I face my God!
Oh mark the words that I do say,
Who knows, Tomorrow could be your Day,
At last, it comes to Heaven or Hell
Decide which now, Do NOT delay !
Come on my brothers let’s pray
Decide which now, do not delay ….
“You say you have no faith?
Love – and faith will come.
You say you are sad?
Love – and joy will come.
You say you are alone?
Love – and you will break out of your solitude.
You say you are in hell?
Love – and you will find yourself in heaven.”
Carlo Carretto, 1910-1988
Italian Philosopher and Christian Youth Leader
