without sound

[standing ovation]

all I hear is the breathing
of cars and sirens sounding together
and the noises from the kitchen
the television you refuse to turn off
and listen to me –
somehow our breath is lost
in every second known to time
how do we exist like this?
how do we know we're alive?

[ayanelove]

short but sweet. the ending kinda punches me in the gut. nice!

i really like this one alot.
& i like how you kept the idea kind of vague so readers can relate to it in their own way.
