Silence

Written By Abigail Walsh-Poole

Silence

Is the absence of noise

Yet it speaks so loud

Noise

Is the absence of silence

Yet no one seems to be listening

Words

Carry messages

But silence speaks louder

Silence

Awkward

Amicable

Scared

Screaming is loud

But silence screams louder

Silence

Angry

Sad

Desperate

Paper carries messages too

But somehow

Silence is louder
