The silence drones on,
Getting louder and louder.
Cover your ears.
Turn down the silence,
Turn up the noise.
Anything to drown out
The blasting static of silence.
The yelling, screaming, hurting
Is better than silence.
I’d rather be hurting inside
Than not feeling anything at all.
Noise reminds me I
Can still feel emotions;
Silence reminds me I’m alone.
Silence is the enemy,
Music is my friend.
The words i sing out loud,
The music i hear,
Are the feelings I never
Knew to express until
Someone else put the jumbled mess into words.
Turn up the music
Get lost in the words.
Push out the silence,
Pull in the feelings
I buried deep in
The corners of my heart
Here we go. Goodbye silence, hello emotion.
