Horrifically Lovely Short Stories and Poems

Silence

Silence isn't always so silent

Sometimes it's deafeningly violent

So loud that your ears start to ring

Yet so quiet that you don't hear a thing

It's those times when your mind is too loud

When you feel that you are getting drowned in a crowd

That you feel like you want to bang your head

Until it bleeds bright red

Your throat is raw from screaming

But everyone only says that you're dreaming

And you cry and cry

Yet no one says good-bye

Your eyes are red

Your brain feels dead

And the silence is finally silent

Because you finally went silent.
