Wanneer stilte noodzakelijk is

Gepubliceerd op 12 september 2025 om 21:32

Woorden kunnen soms 'te' voelen. Te veel, te weinig, te algemeen, te specifiek... Soms mag stilte door blijven echoën totdat woorden weer vanuit de put oprijzen. 

Echoing silence

 

There will be chapters,

without the laughter. 

There will be grief

and utter disbelief. 

 

Perhaps people who try to comfort you,

perhaps you have to face some of these chapters alone. 

 

But if you are in a certain place,

sometimes you need this quiet space. 

Where words don't mean a single thing

and echoing silence means everything. 

 

For there are chapters in your life that teach,

about the spaces where words will never reach.
