“We can‘t know or understand everything in life,
and for once I have to confess that
I‘m not sure I can tell you
what got into me that I suddenly felt so...
empty.

...

...
like it had always been there just waiting for this moment.
the silence came in and sat down very close to me.
And to see it there, not moving
would have freaked anyone out.

(It was the kind of silence
where you could hear a pin drop.)â€
