Silence

I know it's weird and kind of dumb, but I'm afraid of silence. I'm afraid of the silence that drives me mad, the silence that I need. Everytime silence falls, I fear. I fear, is there something there? What if I can't hear it? Why is it so quiet? It amplifies all the voices in my brain, when that's where I need silence the most. I wish I knew how to over come it, but I'm unsure.

How do escape what's everywhere? Overcome the inevitable? I need to break this fear so I can relax, be stronger, braver.

But, I don't know if that'll ever happen.
