Enter The Poet - Speaking In Silence

Sometimes the moments in my life race by like cars on the expressway; with great speed and without any concern for me.

People, who are concerned about your well being, hear your thoughts and ideas; others only hear the sound of your voice.

When the blur between your life and your career becomes indistinguishable; it's time to stop, and re-orient their respective aspects in your life.

We are all trying to make our mark in life; let's hope that our mark does not mar the world.
