Verse: Silence

Silence
is my enemy

it is an
emptiness

a fear that
the phone won't ring

and no work
will come

it is
ever present

and it is
everywhere i go

it is
simple and subtle

precise and
perfect

because
it doesn't need you

it is
more eloquent

than any words
that I can offer you

it is
here now in me

spreading
like some cancer

intent on convincing me
that I am not here

that I have
nothing to say

that you
are not listening.
