There was silence, complete silence, a stillness in her voice, lost in her thoughts and lost in a world of her own. She had seem to set a resolve, like a companionship  so deep which often confused me. 

She spoke after a great deal of debate within her mind, fighting the odds and whether to maintain her silence.

‘Silence is a friend of those who listen with attentiveness of what it brings and what it offers to share, try it you may be left at wonders’. 

She then left, leaving the silence as my companion so I may reminisce and marvel at its wonders that she had already achieved. 

Daily Prompt – Silence

Dear Readers, Hello and welcome to my simple blog (Do excuse me if it gets complicated), where I will aim to enlighten you with my deep, thought provoking (I hope) yet simple posts. My name is Sobia, and I thoroughly enjoy writing; especially when a new thought or idea encourages me to pen away my feelings, thoughts, ideas, allowing me to be 'simply me'. I am a writer, which is what led me to begin my journey in the blogging world. I aim to write whilst reminiscing on the marvels of the world; our daily engagement with people, nature, thoughts, ideas, poetry (which I simply love) emotions, short stories and voice, which we all have, but using it is vital and important too (As long as I don't start rambling and stray away from the topic at hand). I thoroughly enjoy unlocking my pen on a regular basis and penning down whatever intrigues me. I am an avid reader too with a life of ups and downs, highs and lows, yet continuing with a positive mindset to enjoy writing. Visit me: www.simplysimplymeblog.wordpress.com Thank you.

  7. Loved the topic of this poem and your painting of silence! Loved these lines – “‘Silence is a friend of those who listen with attentiveness of what it brings and what it offers to share, try it you may be left at wonders’.”

    I love the truth of those lines. It’s the way I catch words and phrases – ambush them in the silence and darkness!

      2. Thank you so much dear, it is talking is often displayed as being confident and well spoken sometimes, whilst silence is often said to us is of a person who is either anti sociable or shy and not confident. I don’t believe it is the case.

        Thank you dear

      3. You are more than welcome. It is great to meet another “Lover of the Silence” (oh, I like that)! You are right on about silence. Silence is not properly appreciated, except by those who are wise!
        Have a great day!

  11. As your post intimates, so many people are afraid of silence. There is a tendency to think that one must always be the life and soul of the party, always laughing and joking. Many people fear the silence for noise blocks out thought and enables individuals to avoid pondering on the profound things in life. Great post. Kevin
