No Talking
sometimes I really like silence
could go for days with no noise
don't care about the weather
just the house sounds
the trees
maybe a car door.
In the morning I really like silence
no talking
no music
dont ask me to find anything
I can't think I can't answer I don't care.
When I get home I wish everyone was not there
most days I'd get into bed and go to sleep.
At least I'd just lay there and watch the shadows and
breathe the day away
until hunger drove me up and into the dark kitchen
tea and toast by moonlight
no talking.
