Siren Song

You made the waters feel safe

You made the waters feel safe


Little did I know

You were the undertow


You made the waters feel safe


Grasping and pulling

I can’t find my footing

Fighting for healing

I’m clawing the ceiling



You made the waters feel safe


Little did I know


That you were the undertoe


But you made the waters feel…



Safe...

Silence

Silence can have different ways of how they feel. Some can feel akward, like you can’t brake the silence or nasty things will come. It can feel crushing, like your suffocating within it. It can be as peaceful as the park on a cool afternoon with limited people. It could be annoying as well. Like you wish it to be louder with nose, but none comes. It all depends on your opinion and how you see the ...

Silence

Silence is loud.

Silence is that quiet friend louder than clamour.

It will adress all the elephants in the room

Not only will silence mirror your life,

It will dissect your realities.


It can be a good friend,

But, absolutely a bad enemy.

You can’t avoid it.

You can not silence silence

You can not mask the deficiencies of company with silence.

Although, silence is a friend more than an enemy.

Silence

Silence screams cold, fear, darkness ,power,control, empty.

Cold like being alone at night lost in the woods trapped in fear. Fear of never being found surrounded by darkness. The kind of darkness that leaves u feeling lack of power. An unexpected power that takes all of ur control.Leaving u empty inside....

Silence

Silence is very loud and deafening -

It is when your heart and mind are

filled with all the feelings and thoughts

that were never made into words,

that never had a chance to be shared;

These thoughts and feelings pile up

and can very slowly break you into pieces

And take you in a very lonely path....

Dying Cowboy

Silence is loud. Silence is all the thoughts you wish you could quiet. It’s all the feelings you wish you had the words to say. Silence is lonely. When you’re surrounded by silence it’s only you. There are no people around nor animals and insects creeping about. There’s no water rushing down from a stream or dripping from a faucet. There’s no wind howling and rustling trees, nor an AC churning and...

Silence

The sound of silence is deafening. It’s the void of all any any noise, but you can hear how it feels inside of you. If you had to make a sound - to mimic silence - it would be the slight hum of electricity running through my body. The sound of me swallowing - opening my ears. I can feel the silence in the stillness of grass, the way the breeze tickles the back of my neck. I can smell the earth and...

Silence

Silence is heavy. It presses down on me from all directions. It is suffocating, squeezing the air from my lungs. I long for a sound. A drip or a sigh, anything to give a sign of life. It entraps me, daring me to break it. I cannot escape this trap.


Silence is heavy. It holds me close. In the quiet that follows harsh words, it wraps around me comfortingly. I hold onto the moment. The peace in nic...

How Silence Fills The Mind

Being blindfolded stops you from seeing.

It takes away your path that was once there.

Being guided can be miss leading.

Or you could stand there with out a voice to lead because no one cares.

I walked a path with you with a blindfold on.

But I could still hear your voice moving me.

what if that voice wear to be gone.

So I take these steps forward not knowing if your going to flee.

I walked that p...

silence

The most profound form of existence.

The resistance, the revolutionary cognitive dissonance;


I love your voice but you’re most attractive when you’re…

Silent.


I love the way your mouth curves as you speak about your passions and doubts but I love it more when you’re…

Silent.


I love when you talk to me about how I set your soul on fire but I love it more when the tension grows and we both go…

Si...
