silence
By ~ twixx ~
silence.
it comes in many forms
simultaneously, it's empty and dark and full and bright
the world around you stills, almost to a halt
in an insignificant world, it can carry meaning,
if insignificant itself
it can be a silence of understanding,
legs woven into your partner's,
the calm and the serene surrounding you
in a world where daylight is just beginning to show
it can be a silence of malice,
where two's eyes lock
and in each other's eyes
they see nothing but hollow, dry hostility
or it can be an unsure silence
where a word hangs about in the air
wordlessly said, thought by all
but ignored nonetheless
silence, by definition, is the absence of sound
yet,
it always carries a great deal of emotion
Author Notes: i wrote a thing for english class about silence and wanted to post it here lol (poems don't have to rhyme right?)
