Quiet
frightening and disturbing
paralyzed by the silence
overwhelmed by the thoughts that race around in my head

 

His voice
never ending
constantly condemning
never approving

 

Alone, afraid of the emptiness
not knowing what I wanted
what I needed
no one there to tell me what to do, what to think, how to feel

 

Fast forward
the hustle and bustle of a busy life
the laughter and joy that surrounds me
friends here, there and everywhere

Longing for
just a little bit
even If only for a moment
Quiet
