"Silence"

-

I hate the silence

Because it leaves me only with my thoughts

From pouring rain to screaming voices

My mind is never silent

-

Time is ticking

Agonizingly slow

The silence is scary

Every sound breaks it but is frowned on

For once I yearn to use my own voice

Because only distraction will quiet these thoughts

Please somebody break this silence

-

An empty stomach burning

Frantic heart is beating

Gasping but my lungs aren't breathing

Panic on the inside but calm on the outside

Because nobody dares to break the silence.
