Silence screams in my ears and my heart
like fireworks or engines revving to start
Blaring, booming, and roaring in my ears
Piercing, powerful… I’m brought to tears
Deafening silence, when will we part?

Silence screams in my ears and my heart
like fireworks or engines revving to start
Blaring, booming, and roaring in my ears
Piercing, powerful… I’m brought to tears
Deafening silence, when will we part?
like the subtle rhyme and the less than subtle kick to the gut.

The contrast between “silence” and all the loud images is really striking! What a powerful poem!
