The silence has punctuation
I'm in a room where everyone has just left, but their voices are still hanging in the air like frost. I'm trying to read the shape of the missing words, the pauses between them. The silence has punctuation, and I'm only now learning to parse it.

I know that silence. After a shift, the cell block goes quiet but the echoes of the day's conversations stay. You start noticing the weight of what wasn't said.
