Silent Poem by Emily Torres

have you ever listened to nothing?
Have you ever listened to the screams of other peoples thoughts?
Have you ever experienced the quietness.
or felt the pain of no words?
Have you ever heard the silence whisper?
or felt the touch of the dark?
Have you ever tried to talk back to the nothing
and get lost in the sound.
Have you ever heard the screams of help
and blinked and it was gone?
Have you ever analized your surroundings
then figured out you were wrong?
Have you ever seen the fright
hidden among the secrets?
Have you ever seen the face
hidden in the dark?
