Silence reigns

I wake to the empty
Spot in the bed
Your scent still lingers there
 
Keep waiting for you
To call out to me
But silence reigns
 
I walk through the motions
Of every blurry day
Expecting a phone call any minute
 
Come home to an empty house
No TV or radio
And silence reigns
 
I tried to block out
That horrible night
Found you in the bedroom floor
 
You wanted some peace
From a thundering mind
And now silence reigns
