I'm alone with silence

.. Alone with Silence ..
­..
I scream but no one answers.
My own scream echoes back.
Endlessly, repeatedly,
Teasing me, taunting me.
It echoes in my mind,
In the empty place around me.
This is the silence,
It tortures me.
I scream, I scream again.
No answer, just the silence.
The very air is still,
It's heavy, smothering me.
Why doesn't someone answer?
Can't they hear me?
Of course they can't...
I'm alone with silence ..... !
