I Am a Thinker

Silence makes life dead. The more silence prolongs further away from the sound, the faster life loses its own existence.
Sound is one of the many things that makes life beautiful; but silence does not quell its existence. There are so many breath-taking sights to witness; so many aromas to breathe in; so many curious things to touch.

Just the two cents of a young boy after reading that.

If you were my lover, and I loved you so, and you decided not to talk to me anymore, my life would get silenced, without any life forms anymore in my world. I would feel dead inside. Missing you terribly.

Being able to hear the sound, life gives a chance to hear its breathing. Sound creates vibration, most likely, surrounding an object, that makes it alive. Once the sound stop playing its music, the object stop existing.
True, it would hurt a lot. But, as they say, sometimes actions speak a lot louder than words. I'd favour a loving embrace over worded greeting exchange any day, personally.

As much as I'd love to bore you with the physics and science, I won't. I get where you're coming from, and I adore your outlook on it. I'm not sure what it is, passion maybe? But it's nice to see how much you appreciate what you can hear.

Even words do produce sounds. And as one, who loves so much, and is not able to hear her breathing, her heart beating as they used to, not being able to hear the heartbeat... you get lost, faded, forgotten, silenced, forever. Because you just lost someone you belonged to, you lived for. And know, it's over. For you no longer hear her breathing. Her silence makes your life dead.

Thank you for your words.
There are many layers to silence, some good, some not. In silence especially in nature one can find beauty and peace. A forever silence might mean ones heart has stopped beating and in that case silence is deafening. I would not welcome that type of silence. Living in a large metropolitan area in NY it is anything but silent and sometimes I would welcome the quiet. Silence has its place for sure, but silence is not everything.
