Breaking the Silence

Silence

The power of silence is the most underrated aspect of human emotions. Most often we fail to comprehend it's true meaning and power because we all form an opinion about it. When used correctly it can change a lot of things - internally and externally.

“Silence can answer the question words may fail to answer. If you want to know what silence can do, keep silence!” ― Ernest Agyemang Yeboah

 
a thousand words a minute talking non stop to everyone around me;
blabbering some nonsense humming a song playing on the radio I am just a bundle of fun;
everything changed and words that flowed without a hurdle stuttered, stumbled and stopped;
everything changed when you came near , when you came near me the words just disappeared;
sound of words that engulfed the place (a minute ago) is now replaced with a strange silence a strange silence befell on me;
a thousand words before you entered is now replaced by a thousand questions that I am asking now a thousand questions I am asking now to break this silence;
losing my sanity when you are around I am trying hard to find the answer for this silence I am trying hard to find the words I am trying hard to breaking the silence forever!
