oh to know silence.

by Olivia Weinkein

you're beautiful when you're quiet
when you're not trying to fill in the
gaps of silence. sometimes we need
them, ya know. sometimes we need
the silence to really appreciate the
words that burn from our throats.

we need that now.
so shut up.

Amen, sister. Great bit of wisdom for me to take.
