Listen

Shubham Saxena 2017A7PS0302P

I want you to listen.
Listen to the calm, the quiet
Listen to what's left unspoken
Listen to the words we can't say
Listen
Lay calm for a while
Stop everything
And listen.
Keep listening to what you can't hear
For the silence does speak
The walls; they speak, they don't just listen
The things, animate or not, they speak
All they do is speak
Not listen
That's what makes it different
That's what makes it unique
Listening
A lost art; or just found?
Keep listening
For you may hear what you've been waiting for
Your whole life
Keep listening
Keep listening
Keep listening to what the world has to say
Don't stop
For you may miss out on something
Something important...

Don't stop
Keep listening
Even as I stop speaking,
Keep listening
