There are moments when time slows to a crawl —
and every tick feels heavier than the last.
While studying for an exam that refuses to end.
When you miss someone so badly it hurts just to breathe.
When your friend suddenly goes offline and silence takes their place.
When you wait endlessly for someone who hasn’t arrived yet.
When your favorite show or match hasn’t started, but your excitement already has.
When the classroom feels like a prison, and the end bell feels miles away.
Some seconds stretch like lifetimes —
teaching us how heavy longing, boredom, and anticipation can really be.

Your absence is too loud
Too loud that it distracts me
The distraction is consuming me
Consuming my energy

Please **** the silence
Speak, say something
I have been waiting
Every bits of time, I check

What is beyond this box?
I stare at it  just in case I catch you
By the time I have come back
Oh yes, you've seen it?!

My stories are waiting
And so are my questions
Should I live with your mysteries?
Or should I pour in the emotions?

In case you don't know
Your silence is already killing me
Don't let me wait for too long
This heart can only survive for a time
