It's awfully quiet.
Not even the dripping from the tap or the singing of the birds
I guess it all comes down to my question...
What did I do?
Why does everyone go silent?
Why does nature hold its breathe when I'm around?

I'm awfully quiet.
Holding onto something, not sure what
I believe it's got to do with this beating heart in me and whoever lives inside of it
Why?
Why do I care so **** much, when half the people I once called friends give me the cold shoulder and pretend to ask how I'm doing only becauseΒ Β they want to end the conversation faster and run to their 'busy' lives and shut me out!

They're awfully quiet.
Those people who use to text to find out if I still have their book from senior year. The ones who made me laugh and made me feel great about life at some stage.

Absolutely silent!
I need to move on. I need to make new friends and forget the old. I need to go out and have others make me laugh.
But I don't. Because well; I'm still kinda breaking. I haven't moved on. I haven't searched for the noise of the 'New Beginnings' I usually preach on.

It's going to be okay though...I know it. I feel it.
I beg myself to believe...
