Quiet the noise

Silence

I stand there
For a minute or two
Only foot steps creaking
Along the big black stage

I always loved attention
Acting and drama allows that
So I joined theater
And thought it was great

It always started out the same
The count down
3...2...1...
Than the silence fell

We were suppose to think
To think about the class
To think about your scene
But I didn't

I think about other things
The crap in my life
Betrayal from friends
And how no one loves me

Silence hurts me
Hurts so much
Every night late at night
I must listen to music

Music drowns out the silence
Silence means I'm alone
And I never want to be alone
So I push away the silence
