ＯＮＥ:
we were so silent
yet the sound of
our shaking hands
and our eager hearts
filled the air like
the noise of
screaming infants
we were so young,
so innocent and
we just wanted
to break the silence
ＴＷＯ:
a year passed,
and the silence
got more comfortable
it was like
a blanket wrapped
around our
icicle arms
and i loved
this form
of quiet
it was the kind
of silence that
did not make
you crave
for sound
in that moment,
i felt deaf of
earthly noise
and all we
wanted was
to stay wrapped
around each
other's silence
ＴＨＲＥＥ:
and i don't know
when the silence
started to become
painful like a
knife with no handle
that I've been
holding on
too tightly
the feeling
spread from
my fingertips
into the nerves
that scattered
my body and
into my chest
which it deemed
permanent residence
and i can't
blame you
because i know
i hurt you too
we couldn't say
anything because
we gave ourselves
two choices:
speak a war
or let our words
die in our tongues
we chose the latter
we didn't know
what we wanted
i don't know
what i want
and we were
so silent
and silent
we remained
