They* say that silence is golden...whatever that means. They say that "no news is good news." They say that to really understand someone, you need to "walk in his shoes."
Give me a break; cut me some slack; take a chill pill. Who are they? And what gives them the right?
The silence I'm in is black. It is not golden. It does not shine with light. It is empty, earth shattering heartbreak. That is my silence.
No news is not good news: this doesn't even make sense as a math or logic problem. No news is never good news when you're dangling off of the edge of your emotional downfall-- holding on by your fingertips. No news is not good news when you're struggling to keep your head above water, but your body is becoming heavy with doubt.
And my shoes? They don't even fit me properly half of the time.
So tell me, who are they? Because I want to see their golden silence, understand how their lack of news is a positive... and I bet their shoes don't fit me either.
