Don’t go quiet
And the saying goes
‘Do not go quiet…
Into the dying of the light’
And I will not go quiet
He said ‘rage rage against the dying of the light’
So I will not die silent
I will not be quiet
No matter how
I hear the beating drums
No matter when they come for me and tell me my time is done
I will remember to rage,
Not to quiet.
No.
I won’t be SILENT.
Now rage rage against the dying of the light
Because even though the time to save it seems tight
And the twinkle of its light seems slight
If we take our aim and time it right
We might not have to live quiet.
Hi there!
I just started reading your story State Of Emergency, and it completely captured my heart. Every scene is written so beautifully that it felt magical especially the powerful way you express inner reflection and emotional intensity through poetry, with vivid language that resonates deeply. I’d love to share it with a few friends who would appreciate it just as much. Can’t wait to see more of your amazing work! You can also find me on Instagram: @lizziedoesitall.
Thank you for creating such a heartfelt story
