Silence

Silence
The swishing sound of silence
The moment, waiting
The moment, waiting
The moment, stalking, waiting,
Waiting and waiting and waiting 
Then boom.
The sound of silence is shattered by the crashing cascade of broken bottles. 
Falling dreams and cracked skulls.
Blood like torrents 
Flowing rivers turn red in despair
Or Love
I can't decide anymore
