Filling The Void Of Silence A Poem


Filling The Void Of Silence Written in 2017

There is a void
I try to fill
Call me simple
But when there
Is silence
I can't help myself
I start talking
It may just be
A nervous habit.
But I can talk and talk
I hope it is not
Too annoying
Or awkward
More than the impetus
Which was the silence.

An awkward silence
Filled with nonsense
Pardon in advance.
I hope you understand
Don't expect to be profound
But it could happen
As thoughts fly
As do words
And I could just
Spout<b> philosophy
</font></b>If the mood demands.
Demand may be
Too harsh a term
It is just going
With an idea.
It is not hostage taking.

Perhaps one should take note
If words fail
That is when they
Should worry.
For that would mean
I am bereft
Quick someone
Jump in!
Throw in your two cents!
I will be glad to share
The task of void filling.

I know I do this but seemingly cannot help it. How annoying is it or how refreshing or how endearing? It might be all three in degrees eh?
