SILENCE

The time between dusk and dawn,
The time between night and morn,
I travel beyond places unknown,
Places adorned with pains, chaos and
ruins

I walk through these shanties of regrets, despair and confusions
hands, voices and conscience pulling me back, cursing me out, suffocating me

I walk on unflinching never slouching, maybe scared but never panicking,
Still walking on,
walking through to the day I look back at these faceless demons,

Walking through to the day,
I raise a halting hand commanding silence!
just one thunderous command; and tranquility follows
