Silence

بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

Truly you have heard nothing if you have never listened to silence,
You have said nothing if you are unable to speak with the absence of words,
Silence is the emptyness that fills everything.

Let silence speak,
and listen.

in the absence of sound, its all you can listen.

sometimes in order to be heard, you need to be silent.



-May silence bring you peace-

How true brother :)

The Language of Love

The language of love has no words
Listen
For God’s sake

The syntax of the heart’s longing
Is silence
Neither noun nor verb nor consonant

Why all this talk then, O Lover?
Sit and wait
Slow the heartbeat, ease the breath

Unless you become thought
Less
There is no room in you for Hu

Poetry is self-indulgence
Words a veil,
Silence, silence, silence

And the Beloved bursts forth
Everywhere
And all is Love

Ya Haqq!
