Powerful Words
The silence is noisy, roaring between you and I. It is almost unbearable. So frightening noisy, it scares the hell out of me, making my body tremble unwillingly.
But then your lips part to mumble some of the most powerful words in the world. The words of an apology. They cut through all the noise, like a sharpened knife cutting through melting butter. Your voice is like the sound of a thousand waves, fighting against a small boat in a storm.
Is that little boat me? Your voice splash over me - I can't feel my heartbeat anymore.
For a moment, there is only the numb feeling and the noise is blurred, just like my sight. These words, these waves of sorry makes my body freeze, and my mind is finally free of the noisy silence, only to be replaced by this disturbing confusion you give. I break free of the water surrounding me, or rather the ice your words made around me.
Everything is so clear of all sudden. I can see your glassy eyes, but.. I cannot feel them? I want to shake off the haze that is covering them, want to shake the life you once possessed, the person I once knew, back in you.

I can't help it, my voice breaks free of it's chains, even though I tried so hard to keep it prisoned. Like a wild river it goes abroad it's bays, like an avalanche rumbling down a mountain. In it's hasty mess it almost yell and shrieks some of the other most powerful words. Words of pleading love being unheard and rejected, drowning in despair. [/font]
