The Sound of Silence

Silence My opinions are not the norm. Silence A break before the storm Silence A deep and navy blue Silence That question you ask, with who Silence I’m not going to cry Silence But it’s the sound of that final goodbye. This poem was actually written for a friend whose parents are currently going through a divorce. She told me “the silence in this house seems to scream louder than words”. I took that and made it into this poem.
