The Sounds of Silence
January 24, 2010
Floor creaking,
Mice squeaking,
Noises you can hear.
Bats shrieking,
Faucet leaking,
Footfalls coming near.
Branches scratching,
Fear is hatching,
Skin begins to crawl.
Door unlatching,
Breath is catching,
Death isn't far at all.

yeah. i wasn't actually saying "laugh out loud loud loud loud loud..." that would be retarded .
I learned that there is also SOL, Sob Out Loud. I heard it in "Gives You Hell " by The All American Rejects. Just thought I'd share. (It took me awhile to figure out what it stood for, lol.. or sol)

I hate when that happens. I also dislike the 10 character rule on comments.. why can't I just say "lol" sometimes?? thats why once I put "lolllllllllll", so it would post.

Cool. When did this one get accepted? I didn't know about it.
Is it the sounds of your old house, or no? (lol. I'm teasing. you would have to mention hearing a girl slamming on the window trying to get the attention of a squirrel too.)
