Silence!

 

 

Is it silent when the lights hum and the walls creak?  Is it silent when the wind blows and the leaves rustle?  And is it silent when no one but yourself can hear you cry?  Is it!?

 

Answer me!!

 

But the lights don't answer.

And the walls have no ears.

And the wind continues blowing.

And the leaves are thrust about.

And I cry, silently, to myself.
