chalomot shel acherim .

dear world ,
what's it like for you to hush ?
for you to quiet down to nothingness ?
where no one speaks .
where no one has to be heard .
it's as if a blanket of silence was placed upon us .
like someone invented a mute button that works on the entire globe .
just for a short period of time .

so people would appreciate the ability to speak .
and not simply voice out to hurt .

dear planet of mine ,
is there a rain you can get drenched in .
a special kind of rain where suddenly everyone stops talking .

i love you .
i love all of you .
i loathe some too .
but i just NEED silence .
i just need to breathe .
i need to not feel like a constant failure .
i don't need reminders .

all of your voices are blatantly echoing in my head .
breaking me down further .
as if my thoughts don't do the trick already . xx
