Sterile Silence

Folder: 
Thoughts on Life

Silence is so painful-

The way it cuts the air

With scalpels of tension.



The space between words

Is pregnant with emptiness,

Expectant of a fracture

Striking the barren space.  



When secrets are kept,

Self-confidence is aborted

And contempt is born.


Author's Notes/Comments: 

Inspired by: "And sometimes hurt is not of the body. More often it is words, or lack thereof. A lack of words. The cruelty of silence."
