Wavering Silence

These emotions are too strong to hold
and these ghosts don't seem to stir,
this silence doesn't calm, it only quivers
and I can't be in this house alone.
Memories relapse, and time shifts back
to happier times, but this time machine
can only take me so far.
When it is so quiet that I can only hear
my own breath... I stop... so as not to forget
what nothing sounds like in the still of this room.
