Silence is golden.
Silence is scold.
Silence is fearful.
Silence is gold.

Silence is mute.
Silence is cold.
Silence is death.
Silence is gold.

Silence is quiet.
Silence is blank.
Silence is feared.
Silence is rank.

Silence is stiff
Silence is stale.
Silence is golden.
You decide for your self.

Silence is calm.
Silence is rage.
Silence is broken.
Silence is caged.

Silence is limp.
Silence is still.
Silence is horrible.
Silence is kill.

Silence is gray.
Silence is musty.
Silence is eerie
Silence is spooky.

Silence is torcher.
Silence is dying.
Silence is hurt.
Better to speak.

I just like to write. I write mostly stories, some sort and some long. This is one of the only poems i've ever written. And I'd like other people to hear it.

You convey a lot of emotion with a very limited vocabulary.  It's a powerful piece.  Well done.
