The Power of Silence
Silence, helping me guide my way out of trouble
I did something, but no one knows If i don’t say so
Silence, hurting me and my social status
People ignoring me, just cause my mouth cannot unzip
It cannot open, and my voice box cannot work
It cannot power on, mutism roams over me
“That guys Mute” I am Not, I just…
Have not found the purpose to talk
Other people talk for me
I have talked before, when the necessity for it is unignorable.
Just cause I don’t talk does not mean I don’t have a brain
My brain does the talking, it talks my words on the page not the air
Not the air, not talking.
Silence creating an imaginary room,
Bursting my focus to new heights, expanding my knowledge
With this newfound concentration.
Like the walls have been double stuffed with the cotton candy insulation but not for heat, for sound, for silence
Like the paint on the wood has been magically made to insulate sound.
Silence making my stress level hit rock bottom
Silence, making my instincts sharper, oh theres a fly crawling on the left wall of my room in the top right corner.
Not so silent anymore
