Sounds

These are the sounds-
The deafening silence after a vicious argument
Uncomfortable
Irresistible
Maddening silence-
That makes you question your motives
What were you hoping to achieve
Really-
This is the sound of death-
A guttural animal sound
A wail that goes on through the night
Piercing walls
The air
With anguish
A pain you cannot live with
This is the sound of living-
Laughter
Hysterical
And continuous
Breathlessness and the need to pee
This is the sound
These are the sounds-
Listen
