The silence

Today the silence feels more heavy
I can't hear you
I haven't been able to hear you for a while now
Your voice, I can't seem to remember
The way you talk seems to have blurred in my mind

This silence is something I've never felt before
I don't know what to make of it
It's different

I can't say i hate it but I don't love it
It's something I'll have to get used to
it's such a sad thing to forget

I hope I'll be able to hear it again
Someday. Not today
Because today you seem happier without me
So I'll sit here in the silence
And get used to the slow beating of my heart
Until I can get it to echo
And i won't feel so alone
