They say I am crazy!
Just because I hear you,
Just because you whisper to me in the silence...

They accuse my vision of being hazy!
Dismissing my sight as a wild imagination,
Another part of my insincere illumination!
They blame it on my silence...

But in that silence is where I find solace.
You turned the darkness into my strength,
I can explain it to no length.

You gave me the power over speech,
With a silence not a screech.
The power embedded in a whisper,
But more power in the silence thereafter.

I don't need to open my eyes,
I need not behold lies...
I just listen to the silence,
The power embedded in it's radiance.
Then  I know you are there.
