The silence is deafening. In the space between, void of communication, message and sound, I create your response. It is safe to say I always assume the worst. I hear pain, disappointment, anger, anguish, religion, emotion, rage... and whatever else my mind can conceive. What I don't hear is you. I don't hear those who matter most. 

In this void, my mind plays tricks on me. I may be my own worst enemy. A fear of disappointing those around me has made me this way. I know no other way to be. I know this though; somewhere between here and there, you figure out this love thing doesn't happen for those who aren't themselves. I just wish you were here to rejoice in my revelation. 

Thanks for entering my world,
