Where Words End

Who says silence has no sound?

To me, it’s the loudest around.

Not heard, but deeply felt,

it breaks the heart where words have knelt.

The silence after losing someone,

the friend you thought would stay.

The silence of betrayal,

when tears speak what words cannot say.

In empty rooms, memories remain,

whispering softly through the pain.

Some silences never truly end—

they echo in the heart,

long after the voices fade.
