Silence

The loudest thing in the universe
 Is not the sound of a nuclear bomb hitting the ground fired by military forces 
Or an astroid crashing into earth from space 
Nor is it the sound of two major stars colliding
 Not even close to the sound of a crying baby 
Woken up by hunger at 3am in the morning
 It is silence
 You cant see the impact 
Known to be so loud 
Its unheard off
