SILENT WORDS
The silent whisper of the cricket
Filled my gentle soul
Thoughts so wide i can not hold
Like a bottled smoke
I beg to be free
But the silent whisper of the cricket
Would not allow.
Gently it came
flooded the bottled mind
Gently gently crippling into the silence mind
The silent whisper of the cricket
I prayed to be free
the creator should plead my case
from the silence whisper.

@David Odigie. thanks, you speak the mind of the poet.thanks for identifying the metaphorical languages.
It's quite metaphorical with an evasive meaning, allowing different readers to interpret it differently and be able to apply it into different situations. It quite interesting " silent words"

Oh no!
Sleepers only do at night,
What night does at day
Leave ur sleep for when its best,
When life at its end you rest.
