Quiet — Not Silent

[JasGhost]

~~

When the heart is burning,
But the eyes still shine through —
Do we have to feel it all?
Do we really have to brag about it?


And when the bottle brims over,
A little spilling past the lid,
Is there always need to cover,
Do you think we need to hide the truth?


Sometimes fire speaks softly,
Sometimes silence spills loud —
Then,
Not every pulse needs a name on it.
Not every soul needs to speak about it.

Wonderful insight! You have explained that both pain and truth sometimes do not wait for words to express themselves. This contrast of "fire" and "silence" is great.
