Silence... in a way feels suffocating.
Though I don't know why.
Not a sound... nothing.
Just sitting there...
Maybe your thinking
But who really knows?
And you just sit there, staring
At nothing.
Is that the point?
Everyone quite...
Too quite for anything... anyone.
So quite you could her a pen drop and
Ding!
The only sound which
Circulates the room.
Your throat closing up.
Your mouth is dry.
Because your in a room of
Silence.
Author notes
I don't remember if I posted this before, or not. I was going to post in at AP (allpoetry) but then the parental controls blocked it. Sometimes it does, some days it doesn't. Weird.
Haha, this one sucks.
Anyway, comments, suggestions?
Thanks-
Hope.

... I would die in a quiet room. I add noise to ever room I enter. I am a loud person you see. This poem caught my attention because of the title though because even to me silence is sometimes important... You took it in a different way than what my mind first wandered to though I ended up connecting the two ideas. Good personal effect for me but I am not sure if it has the same effect on anyone else. One suggestion though. Line 7 I believe if I counted right. "At nothing" I think that line has a lot of power being so brief but I think it would be more drawn out with power if you just leave it at Nothing. and dropped the at. Other than that I enjoyed reading it. ^^
