A Poem About Friendship

No Space Among Us


words anxiously spoken
falling upon one another
incessant
cascade
                full
pounding down
rocky words

after a while the constant sound
is
numbing
speech without pause
between thoughts
leaving
no gap for new ideas

reminding us of the precious
gems
of silence
between friends
