The Silence


The Silence I hear leaves me adrift.
            Like an empty hole that needs to be filled
            Like a dark room were I becomeafraid to walk
Imagination takes over, and scary monsters are born in the night.

            A step with no ground
            A look without a sound
I reach out, but know thing is there to hold on to.
and I fall , then I lye quietly to listen if there is any faint sound that wants to be heard.

Will the Silence ever end?
