Silence

Do not resent silence
The calls made in silence to those around you asking them to ask "how are you"
To ask with the intention of sitting in that answer
Answer you own calls
Share secrets and dirty jokes with yourself
Laugh as though you were making faces with your best friend across a crowded room
Answer your own call
Be your own friend
You know the level of empathy you need
At least be willing to learn how to empthise with yourself
You know how knee-deep you are in the shit
Breathe the fucky stench as you prepare yourself for salvation
Salvation is coming
It is coming and you are going to witness and be an integral part of your own saving
Let yourself in on your secrets
Your fears
Your disappointments
Do be afraid not resent silence
You are your best friend in such times
Your own best friend.
