the absence of silence

oops

You never feel more alone
Then when in the company of silence
The longing for chatter
A meaningful conversation
Some dialogue in response
To your minds wandering thoughts
But all you get in return
Is the heavy weight
Of air with no sound
It wears upon you fully
Your only cure is your own voice
It tells you exactly how lonely you are
You only long for silence
When you are by yourself
And the only hum you receive
Is the melody of two lovers
The echoes of their pleasure
Bounce off the walls
While you sleep alone
It is the loneliest sound in the world
You long for the stillness
But are stuck with the quiet reminder
All around it surrounds you
…the absence of silence
