A time comes when you too will
turn your back on you
you will be just a call away
to be reached
but even your screams will
move away from you
You will notice a silence
walking beside you just like a shadow
You will acknowledge its existence
for the first time in your life
Silence can be powerful
even painful than screams
Screams move away; silence stays with you
Some call it helplessness
Some say it is realization
and I say
‘It just does not matter anymore’
what matters is the sun will rise tomorrow
and another day will be born
And that will be a new one
