Silence
When was the last time
anyone took notice
of blank spaces
of silence
the ones that sit
hang back awkwardly
stand guard over lonely stretches
hesitate at crucial moments
wait
withoutthem
wordsarejustletters
crowdingtogether
in combination
they are limitless with possibility
weaving out of nothing
everything
take notice then of silence
that sits and waits
giving meaning
to every word
by being
here

Good point, and great writing. I really enjoyed this, it kinda calmed me in a way.
weaving out of nothing everything .... quite a metaphsyical tapestry of thought you've got here, it is quite like a meditaion of some sort, had my mind into the empty quiet of interstellar space that births the stars...in my case i fear i'm lost in the dark quiet for long strecthes
