I know the word should be "silence" instead of "silent", I just wanted to stress the fact that the words "silent" and "listen" contain the same letters.

Lost Within The Words

In the middle of Belief,
Lurks the shadow of lie.

‘Silent’ screams an untold tale,
Listen to its voice a moment,
Then…
Everything seems well.

Oh I got lost within the words,
Where am I?
