This is the silence of countless words
lounging in their corners;
narcissistic,
stage-frought.
One more chance away from still
saying nothing.

This is the emptiness of a million dreams
haunting empty imaginations;
unconvincing,
unbelieving.
Tricksters who fail to delude
even themselves.

This is the loneliness of a dozen friendships
huddling against the comfort;
nostalgic,
unrealised.
Browsers, flippiing through a book with
too many faces.

Neat, the part about the tricksters was very well done.

Err I can sort of guess what frought is supposed to mean but what is frought ?

Eh, poetic license. I didn't like 'stage-frightened'. And it didn't fit.

I should patent the word.
