Wait, wait.

Wait wait wait.

Silence fills my head.

I double-check my work

I am unconscious.

Wait wait wait some more.

What's that sucking sound?

The sound of silence.

 

I can endure anything

In order to climb those wooden stairs

See him open the door

Mix me a drink

In a cold dark kitchen

Please? Can we leave the lights off?

Smile as a week of stress

Melts in minty bourbon heat

And he begins the circuit

Through darkened rooms

 

I can endure anything

Even silence that sucks away my spirit

Even silence from him.

 

Until the day comes

When that silence means

"No More".
