Silent Noise

Silence
Peace and calm
No sound
Can invade
But listen
Carefully
Silent noise
Rings away
In your ears
High pitched
In your head
This silent noise
True peace
Does it exist?
Unsure
Just a myth?
Noise everywhere
Even in silence

I'm a thinker, listener, a "question's pretty much everything" type of person. A seeker of knowledge, always restless, yet seeks the calm in life. I love writing in all forms and am in the process of completing a number of ongoing projects. I love the craft of writing and the possibilities it holds. A magic carpet through the mind. I love pretty much all creative arts, music, film and theatre the leading ones. Born in Hertfordshire in England, my family Irish, Welsh and English, I currently reside in Edinburgh, in Scotland. I'm drawn to coastal and mountain regions where I like to go to think and draw inspiration from. Ireland is a place that's dear to me, and I try to get back to see family and friends as much as possible. My interests are wide and broad, too many to mention here, but history, archaeology, criminology, music and film are just some of those things I love. I hope you enjoy my ramblings on here as that's what they are really. I'll let my fingers do the ''talking...''

    1. It is, but don’t you hear a noise like a ringing in your ear when all is quiet? It’s as if you can’t actually escape noise at all? I love the silence sometimes or the peace of the beach and the sound of the sea. Very calming but that’s a different thing.
