GLORIOUS SILENCE?

The voices were gone.

There were no sounds.

She felt peace wend its way through her body.

Then came the panic of loss.

What was happening to her?

She had never escaped the barrage of people inside her head.

Could this be what people meant when they talked of silence?

What a glorious feeling this silence was!

Or was it, she wondered as the lonliness washed over her.
