SilenceAll there ever wasAll there ever isI hope it won't always beSilenceBetween usAgainst usFor usIt's tortureDaysMonthsYears of silence at a timeI can't stand it anymore.
Just give me good conversation,
And I will return three-fold.
I do not mean nonstop, interesting topics.
Simply, back and forth, looking-in-the-eye,
Honest, straight-talk, good conversation.
I try to scream
Nothing
Silence
I try to speak
Yet again nothing
Silence
I wonder what has happened
I am mute to the world
Has someone clipped my vocal cords so as to forever silence
