In Silence

After a long time I decided to be in silence...
For those were the words which I felt comfortable with...
Peace, Quiet and Solitude;
Like I haven't met them in a long time...
Felt good to meet them for they are my best friends...
I thought, "I have lost them";
I longed for them...
I searched for them everywhere...
Even in the silent retreat...
I found them nowhere...
I cried and hauled in sorrow; sat down with a deep longing to be with them...
For a long time I sat in nothingness...
"Surprise!", they screamed...
"Whoa!", I exclaimed...
They were all right here with me in the now;
Peace, Quiet and Solitude;
"Where were you all?", i asked, "I thought I had lost you forever..."
"Oh! No", they said, "We were hiding inside you and wanted to surprise you. We love you so much that we thought of playing with you and Oh! what fun we had..."
We all giggled and laughed together and hugged each other and then i found a new friend; "Stillness"...
"Oh! Another surprise", I said and cried and hauled with joy...
What a day it was... Peace, Quiet, Solitude and now Stillness too...
In silence...
