DARK SILENCEš¤
It was so quiet
So silent, so dark
I could see the colour of sound in the distance
The quiet called it quiet
The silence called it graveyard
Nothing could be heard
But pure echoes and whispers of darkness
The colour of sound, engulfed in total nothingness
Nothing moved
Nothing breathes
Nothing sigh
A dead space
An insatiable void,
A black hole where nothing existed but NO SOUND
The drop of a pin
The silent dripping of waters
Blood flowing
Teeth-gnashing
The silent cries of our soul
Our eyes cried for salvation
Our heart confessed our desperation
The silence storm deafened the echoes of our own thought
Day and night became inseparable
As they became one in silence
We could hardly breathe
A world where silence has become the sound of music
It was a scary kind of silence
We could hear our heartbeats
It was terrifying, horrifying
It polluted everywhere
Swallowing up everything and anything called sound in its path
The people's voice
Became nothing more, but a howling death cry
āIf you want to stay alive, keep silent!!!!ā
We were breathing
Yet we could hardly breathe
The silence was a tyrant
Yet we needed it to stay alive.
Our only survival instinct
It protected us
we lived, breathed and sighed through silence
We adapted
We evolved to becoming naturally mute
A necessary evil
We talked in silence
Moved in silence
Wine and dined in silence
Sang in silence
Danced in silence.
It became our favourite sound
Our god for it protected us
We screamed in silence
Fought in silence
Cried in silence
Our voice box became our only weakness
Silence, our only strength
It harmonized us
Making us look past our differences
We loved it
Felt it
Embraced it
It was the only option
Embrace the silence or die!!!
We became a shadow of our former self
A disgrace to evolution
Forgetting what it felt like
To be grounded in sound
With sound came war
conflict, terrorism, pollution
Then came the silence and all vices were gone,
Perhaps the silence was all we needed
A necessary evil
We have come to embrace š¤
