Silence

I might be jabbering a lot, may be even annoying you with my talks

when I am trying to fill that silence which burdens all my words like dead weight

It takes strength to lift those words off my mind through the live cables that take them to my tongue

to create to and fro motions by contracting and relaxing those muscles to articulate

and spit out those words like random cannons of sound that can fill the room with unlimited words leaving no space for silence

The words bounce and scatter, struggling their way through the thick envelope of silence that surrounds the air I breath in

By the time those words reach my ear, creating vibrations on my ear drum, they are coated with viscous silence, thick and depressing

and the vibrations create dull signals which travel to brain, tired and failing.

Silence knows how to be present in noisiest room, in ringing sounds of laughter

It knows how to hide in every sigh that follows.
