The loneliness Between Words By Keeran

Silence. It lingers between talks, in the pauses where someone should have stayed but left instead. We live in a world where it is full of voices, yet sometimes,the absence of one voice can be louder than all the noise around it. Loneliness does not arrive when someone is lonely, it thrives in crowded rooms, in the spaces where we speak but are never truly heard by anyone. We try to reach but our words dissolve like salt and water. How many times have we sent a message to someone that was never returned? How often do we hold in our thoughts because we know that no one will ask ? Silence is a heavy, burden we carry everyday, everywhere,waiting for someone to notice the weight of our unspoken words.
Unsent message
Dear someone
I wonder if you even think about me. I wonder if my name crosses your mind and you linger in mine. There are so many words that I have thought typed and erased, messages that sit unsent. Maybe I am afraid of the silence that follows after I have sent the message. Maybe I think I know the answer and don’t want to face it. So, instead. I hold my words in my hands like a fragile glass, waiting for someone who never comes and claims them.If silence could kill then I would be nothing but an echo somewhere.
Yours,Keeran
Poem
The sound of nothing
I spoke in the night, so deep,
But the silence swallowed every plea.
Á voice unheard, A name unfold,
A lonely ghost that haunts the sound.
The world still turns,the stars still shine,
Yet here i am waiting with hollow time.
My echos fade, they never stay
Like lovers lost who walk away.
If silence speaks then tell it tell,
I loved to much,I waited so long and I fell.
