Don Bosco Philippines South Province

Hum as the silent wind blows past
The drapes that covers the window
As the shunned light begins to filter through
The room echoes the light
The light shines the silence
And the stillness overwhelms

No sound is heard but the walls are ringing
With shouts muffled by shouts
And I begin to listen, not hear
None of the clashing
No more of the buzz
But a single deep note that permeates

It beats as my heart
And heaves with my breath
I am one in motion
I am at home

I am drawn deeper and deeper still
Until I find myself surrounded
The silence envelopes
The stillness satisfies
I no longer want
It is enough to be here
