I went to the desert
To listen to the silence
I fell in love with silence
I relished silence
The desert whispers stories
It tells its stories
The desert lives in silence
Silence hides secrets
The stone of knowledge is a treasure trove
A faithful companion of silence
Fear is a mediocre companion
Jealous and greedy
And Silence woke me up
The desert hugged me
Solitude was a lesson
Silence has discovered treasures
I found what I lost
Who I am--I recalled
I got to know myself in Silence
I got my wings back
The desert is a mystery
Silence, a faithful guardian
The stone, a repository of knowledge
History—a sorceress
