deafening muteness

what is the meaning of this long silence
astounded and unmoving
like a statue in a long winter
across the polars of this world

the ice age is long gone
but the marks and traces
of its frozen legacy
is never melting

the longest silence on record
is like a death of a mime
on a midnight's dark blue skies
and deafening muteness

i wonder how long would this last
my lifetime is inadequate era of waiting
what is the meaning of this long silence
and why do we endure its existence
