The Indifference Of Silence

by @South-by-Southwest

Finally . . . I sit in the midst of silence . . . and silence resides in the midst of me I strain to hear the nothingness . . . and it comes over so clear All promises lay asleep in their coffins . . . covered in stone and time This empty blackness comes complete . . . stealing whatever sanity there is left in me Here in my equilibrium there are no days or weeks . . . just the certainly that no one speaks Come hungry darkness . . .never to be satisfied . . . for you swallow eternity still there is nothing inside The indifference of silence bends over to kiss me . . . cold blackened lips whispering "There is no certainty."
