Words fall on my hearing ears
Yet I am deaf to their sound
Letters jump at me from the page
Yet their meanings are still paper bound
I feel the blankness settling down
I feel the emptiness all around
The hollow spaces filled with void
The lines are blurred, and all destroyed
I hear the silence screaming out
My voice wants to, but I cannot shout
The nothingness is a chaotic riot
I want to yell and crack the quiet
I wish for silence
I wish for sound
I wish to fly
I feel only the ground
