The Sound of Silence
I hear the sound of silence in the middle of the night.
when the rest of the world is deeply asleep.
A tune that is mine to cherish.
It whispers secrets in my ear.
of love, loss, and grief,
And though it's only a whisper,
It echoes through my mind.
It tells me stories from long ago.
Of persons who have been lost and found,
And, despite the fact that it is only a narrative,
It has me completely captivated.
So, when the world is loud and brilliant,
and I can't hear myself think,
I close my eyes and listen to the soft wink of stillness.

Whispers of the Night
In the quiet depths of the night, when the world is cloaked in shadows and the conscious mind takes its much-needed rest, a realm of infinite possibilities comes alive. This is the realm of dreams, a place where the subconscious mind weaves stories using the threads of our deepest emotions, desires, and fears. Each dream is a tapestry, a complex blend of symbols that hold the key to unraveling the enigma of our inner selves. This is the story of dreams unveiled, where the journey of dream analysis transcends time and transforms lives.
