Silence is an absence.
Silence is profound.
Silence is a conversation.
Being had without sound
Silence is an expression
One that cannot be heard
Silence cannot be spoken
Although it is a word
Silence is a presence
Of great nothingness
Silence can be something
And yet cease to exist
Silence can fill a room
And have no mass at all
Silence cannot be dropped, yet it can fall
Silence is a mystery
That will forever go unsolved
Silence is how every sound can swiftly be dissolved
Silence is the sound of rest
The only sound that can sound best
While other sounds can cause great pain
Silence is not the sound to blame
For Silence is what silence is.

Lovely.
This reminds me of when I am with my best friend here - a girl - but don't worry, it's a healthy relationship . .I can just be walking with her without speaking and it's just lovely . . sometimes silence is beautiful in and of itself - just being in the moment. Don't if that sounds spiritual or romantic, but for me at least, it is small moments like those that are precious/valuable.
That's what came to mind upon reading these words.
Jazak'Allahu Khairan

Nice poem masha'Allah... well said.
I probably would have ended the poem at "Silence is the sound of rest" since it's a bit of a romanticized perspective (in my opinion based on my interpretation of your words) to say that it is "the only sound that can cause best while other sounds can cause great pain." The absence of sound, i.e. the presence of silence, can be a severe pain, and silence itself can be the sound of pain.
"Silence is not the sound to blame..." hmm.. perhaps. I'll have to think about this one a bit longer.
Your poem invites an interesting topic to think about..the voice of silence...
