How very clever! The metaphorical values of the colors (golden = perfect, blue = sad) are played on with skill. You even use rhyme!

Good 5-7-5- only you need to remove the comas in order for it to have the correct format. Otherwise good interconnecting lines. Thanks for sharing

This is a dark poem that seems to ooze with dismay and hopelessness. It's a great thing in movie theaters, but I don't think you're referring to that kind of silence in this one. Very effective in its straightforward simplicity.

Hello Angelisat. Very interesting observation you have here regarding silence. I understand that the reduction of noise could actually amplify the amount of lonliness. Very true. Good job with this. Cheers.

I really like your poem, but I'm saddened that you see silence as Blue and cold and lonely. There are silent moments, late at night, when the sky is filled with stars, when one can get truly lost in thoughts of the wonders and beauty of the world. Noise is so often a distraction from the things that are really important.
Peace, friend. Enjoy the silence.

I agree that Silence can be a good thing, but I wanted to explore the other side of silence, the dark side, the side not many people think of. Thank you for your review.

You need to work harder to change the common saying. Lol. Silence is usually golden when applied it wisely. Silence could be dangerous if worngly applied.

Silence is great, it leads me to think outside my mind. But sometimes is not so good, when we see injustice and we just stay in silence. Your poem make me think and evaluate myself as well.

When it's dark and one is friendless, I would imagine that silence is indeed blue, or at least it would cause you to feel blue. You've captured a great deal of emotion in just a few words, well done :)
