As I lay here staring,
trapped in the embrace of life
I think for a moment,
in that moment there is neither fear nor suffering,
no happiness or celebration,
there is only silence,
the silence that envelops me and assures that peace is on the horizon,
it is now that I know that silence is my comfort,
because in that moment nothing is produced to sway even the most fickle of emotion,
but that moment is only temporary,
as fleeting as the dying of a star in a galaxy unknown
