Silence...

With each spoken word,
the music escalates,
in intesity and fervour.

The anticipation
of the climax,
the heart knows,
the mind dreads.

Eyes wander,
as if to escape.
but then realise,
they can't.

Words they are,
Just words.
He reassures himself.
As if he can.

He falls, crashes
without moving.
Fingers tighten around the arm rest,
as if to the music.

It gets too loud,
a pandemonium
yet,
he strains to hear...

..the Silence.
