silence

I feel frustrated within myself,
unsettled and restless.
Sitting still, silently and uncomfortably for five hours is really far too long in one's head.
The need for conversation and banter can be a blessing, yet a curse in disguise.
Silences emphasises my endless space of creative clutter inside my head;
unproductive and unused.
It highlights the annoyances of others around me;
screaming children and sickly romantic and organised couples.
It gives time to question insurmountable things about life;
my future and my fears.
It makes me feel completely alone;
despite the company that I'm with.
Worst of all, it makes me revel in the nervousness I have;
the return to London
sadness of an ending holiday
work worries
...
the list goes on.
All of this... nonsense, would simply fade away with some idle chitchat.
For once, I wish my crave for conversation would cease to bring me some craved inner peace.
