Is silence better?

I wonder if it hurts like I hurt
If this ache to speak
To be heard
builds and builds
Until the silence is broken and
All the words of inane small talk
All that’s allowed streams out
A trickle of steam and ash
Choked volcano

I wonder if this empty pain is one I’ll get used to
Or will I break
Waiting

      Oh, honey, I’m already breaking. Right now, I’m like a loosely held together bag of glass. I have hope but, it’s difficult.
