Impending

The kettle whistles,
and I am startled back into the now
Here I am

Exactly in the middle of never
I wait for the pause
The pause I know all to well

It always comes right before
The Silence
The Silence is deafening

It is louder than the coffee mug in my hand
Louder than the look in your eyes
Louder than the recurring thought in my head


That tells me I am waiting for something big
Something inevitable,


...


I search your expressions hard,
...and sit--deafened--wishing I knew what it was~

randomness... this was just me being bored and wanting to get my writer's block off that's been on for about, oh....MONTHS.

    it's nice that you wrote this. I know the tone speaks sadness but the kettle's whistle just made me smile. I have these kettle whistle's moment. I wake up 2 am to get ready for work and it was sort of an alarm clock for me to hear it whistle
