And have you ever
heard silence this loud? Even
louder than your words.

It should be ridiculously hard to come up with a review for a haiku. And yet I feel that I should write something more than "I love it." So. This. In thirteen words, you've described a situation so relatable to most of us -- sometimes we run out of things to say, or we drift apart, or we're forgotten, and then it's the silence, not the words, that tells you all you need to know. And then you've summed up this situation so concisely in thirteen words. I am duly impressed.
