I didn't know darkness will be my home and every now and then, silence enveloped my soul. Not the kind of silence that I couldn't utter a word. This is the kind of silence that's been eating me alive. Silence is my only way of pretending. Pretending that I am alive and still breathing. But they didn't know that my silence is suffocating. My thoughts have been drowning me and I keep these all to myself. And it came to the point that I want to be silent for the rest of my life. Living exhausts me so I prefer to be silent.
