Hush

Hush

Silence
can kill and save,
Silence
can create and break.
In a swarming crowd
of repetitious conversation,
howling sirens
and the beeps of machines,
silence,
a yearning upon heavy breathe.

Nights spent alone,
cold coffee and smoke,
argumentative relations
that are guilty and broke.
The sky is pure,
stars glisten like shards of glass
accompanied by
orchestral silence,
my body, full of sound.

Amongst silence,
You are everywhere and nowhere to be found.
