An old woman voice describes silence and words
Words revival

My words shatter
do I really need silence?
he was here one day
I listened to his last word
on that cold bed
he grew motionless
please speak
his words burst and scattered everywhere
I collected them all and buried them in my heart
words aren't worthless
they survive
to remind us of past days
I seek hope in words
let me hear you through that barrier that stole your soft voice
I sit here alone
on the edge of that same bed
all creatures calmly muted
and suddenly, my inner voice screams
live through words , let them write the end of the story
words that I had buried before can save me now
Ill speak to birds
I'll learn their language
and the words that rain drops draw on the muddy streets
I'm going decipher them all.
I'm going to destroy this silence
until it swallows my last word .
