Analysis of Speechless



The hardest part of being alone is swallowing the silence,
The echos from your own chaos.
It's funny how loud a turned mind can be.

Thoughts become so loud.
They bounce off walls.
Recklessly shattering the silence, you sit in.

Perhaps that's why I have feared being alone nowadays.
I'm afraid of chocking on the shattered pieces my silence feeds me these days.

About this poem

about my experience in the society. I will rather be silence than be saying what should be hidden.
