Silence
October 31, 2012
Silence.
So much louder,
than any spoken words.
darker than any night.
heavier than any burden.
The ultimate weapon,
the ultimate weakness.
Silence.
The hatred solidified in a great wall,
impenetrable,
unbreakable.
You take my silence as shyness,
awkwardness.
It's not.

Isn't it ironic? We ignore the ones who adore us, adore the ones who ignore us, love the ones who hurt us, and hurt the ones that love us.
