Silence
surrounds us
hugs us
envelops us
with the distilled peace it brings
but scares us
it screams louder than any threat
cry
plea
bomb
timer
roaring engine
destroying the person inside
from tiny
to microscopic
saying the words we never wanted to hear
proving us wrong
every time
taking us away from what matters most
it creates a boundary
between friends
family
strangers
lovers
all
showing us
as good as quiet can be
it kills
it causes judgement
hurt
cries
fear
torn hearts
it calms
destructs
makes the voice inside our heads scream
for injustice
love
hurt
pain
plea
the past
present
future
scaring us half to death
because we can never know
only moving forward
into an open sea
a rabbit hole
lover's arms
the path to find ourselves
its forever changing
impact
message
feeling
fear
pain
love
unknown
just so that
life can change
it plans
predicts
plots
but is never exact
just waiting
for the time to scream
moment to change
person to crush
person to find truth
it scares us all
because of the things it can do
tragedy it brings
hate it stores
love it hides
truth that we could never see
to be the strongest
to see the hope...feel the hope
to be un afraid..
one has to know..
it will all be ok...
