Silence speaks volumes
A glance in someone’s direction
A sorrowful look in someone’s eyes
A poorly hid snicker
Something simple as the touch of a hand
Can tell a story
A story worth so much more
Than words
Because the emotions
Transmitted through total silence
Are the most powerful
And words are nowhere near enough
To convey such intense emotion

Though silence is not filled with words,
It is filled with feeling
Maybe people
Should communicate through silence
More often
Inspired by the poem “telling” by ap.
