Silence

Silence filled the air like a giant cotton cloud. It left a weight on my chest, and drowsiness in my eyes. Yet the same silence had energy. A quiet buzz of potential sounds and words filled my mind. The energy seeped into me replacing that intial drowsiness with restlessness. Motivation filled my soul with the words I couldn't find, twisting nouns into stories and conversations. Stories I would never write, conversations I would never have, because all that was left was silence.
