Silence

poem by: Alice Inwonderland
Written on Feb 07, 2016 

Through the silence I hear it
It waits on me to notice
I grasp it for just a second
But then it leaves me in
Silence

It pickles my brain
Gone before it’s there
Stay and let me listen
But then it leaves me in

Silence.

Alice inwonderland commented:
Silence is a bitter sweet thing. Beautiful when you are content and soul destroying when you are not.
