Something Other Than Silence

I wish something other than silence sated me

If I wasn’t silence then what would your silent suitor say

I wish something other than silence sated me.

If not quite so silent then what would your sighing suitor be?

If we are not speaking then when can you see eternity?

I am on bent knee, with no religion I pray.

Only the quiet keeps the noise at bay.

But I wish something other than silence sated me.
