Sounds of silence
Is something wrong?
Should have heard something...
It's been too long.
Could get a phone call
Its turning into night
Still not a word,
I hope that they are alright.
Pacing the room
Worried and upset
Where could she be so long?
In trouble, I bet.
The car broke down,
It's out of gas
She's out there stranded
Or been in a crash.
Why not a phone call
To ease my mind
She lets me worry
All the time
Should I call the hospitals?
Should I call the cops?
The telephone rings
My heart stops.
Who could it be?
I pray she's alright.
"Hi, mom. It's me
I'm spending the night."
"Ok, baby
Thanks for the call
Was I getting worried?
No, not at all."

i was given a title and asked to write about sounds of silence and the most intense silence in the world to me is worrying,not knowing what has happened to a loved one and why you have not heard from them.
that space of time you wait is torture and the relief is enormous when
they are OK.
