Silence use to be comforting for me
When it was quiet, I was at peace
I was able to relax, able to sleep
But now silence is different
Now Silence is the empty screams of the people
Silence is the cries of people losing loved ones
Silence is the struggle of doctors trying to find a cure
Silence is the fear of what else is to come
To some the silence now can be nice
To others it is the deafaning reality of our situation.
But silence won’t last, it never does
We will hear the cheers and songs of freedom
