sshhh...

nothing. and yet everything.
empty. and so full.

the pain of loneliness,
or the bliss of peace?

one moment frozen in time,
as the heart leaps in joy,
or an endless eternity,
zilch on either side?

solace in oneself
and the absence of someone.

everything i want. and hate.
all i run from. and embrace.

but words aren't enough evidence
when i talk about my silence.
