Silence

I sit in the silence, Alone in the dark, Thinking to myself, And I feel like I’m nothing but a virus. And from what I can gather from the people around me, Being around me is terrible. So people avoid me, And they always keep their distance. So I stay down here, Staring at a wall, Sitting in a corner, Wishing I could be a new person in all. But I’ve been in silence, Away from others for so long, That I start to hear the silence, A quiet and melodic song. Even in something As empty and meaningless as nothing You can still find something great. So look for it, and don’t wait.
