The silence around here is very LOUD.

It is quite peaceful but frightening.

It's like walking through rain without the sound.

Only being comforted by lightening.

Being alone is sometimes being free.

... But all of our happy moments have ends.

Being alone can give us inner peace.

But so can family and friends.

Being alone for a while can be GREAT.

Being alone forever can be sad.

We should enjoy life before it's too late.

We shouldn't just watch everyday pass.

Being alone can give us peace if mind.
But we are trapping ourselves in from life.

I wrote this piece while I was in the hospital. It was very quiet, then it got me to thinking of the reasons why people say "there is NO place like HOME."
