Silence
Your silence killed me
Not at all fast,
Very much so painful
It seems my soul left me
Piece by piece
With every word that escaped my mouth,
All I wanted was for you to speak your soul into me,
But all I got was silence.
Not the peaceful quiet kind
But the kind that screams inside your mind
The silence that makes it difficult to hear anything else
The whispers of the night flowing through my mind so easily,
Like a warm knife through butter.
But your silence it stayed
Haunting me,
Hurting me,
Heaping amounts of nothing,
Flying through my mind taking every thought and abusing it
Until the only way to end the silence was to scream
The screams were loud,
They were painful,
And long.
Yet your silence kept slicing through
Until I couldn’t take it anymore,
Your silence led to the last loud noise I could make
Bang
And it was all silent.
