Silence

 Wishing it away
the silence

silence engulfing every sound
 as if hungry for dinner

feed the silence
with any sound
but it still wants more

It takes the chirps
 the wind and its chimes

buries them deep
in the hallows of loneliness

filling it up
to disguise loneliness as complete

Tick Tock the clock

dares to interrupt its greed

makes you miss the silence
that the Tick and the Tock
are no longer
Alone waiting
waiting for life
to make a noise
a heart beat
another alone
finding their comfort
in your silence
you are there
across time
somewhere
alone
in
your
silence
