silence
silence so loud it bursts my eardrums
leaving nothing but an echo
mocking every word you've ever whispered behind my back
marking every whisper with a bang
and i hang my head at the knowledge
that maybe i am doing the wrong thing
but i refuse to hear your words of disappointment
as the blood runs from my ears
all i see is smiling faces
waiting for the world to end
in one silent bang.
