the deafening, deafening silence

i am having trouble remembering how long its been since i've seen her in person. or heard her voice. it occurred to me that i have to stop and think about how old she is now, and even harder to remember details about her. i have not heard from her in months, and the sound is stifling.

and always, the thought lingers, "when will the other shoe drop?"

this quiet cannot, and will not, go on forever.
