Each word takes a toll

Still I must write.

Just to stay shiny.

Let them free,
  hoping it is not Pandora's chest.

Silence is for those at peace,
  or maybe the guilty.

I do not meet either description.

So,
  I will keep going.

Hope to reach the first.

If I obtain the goal,
  why would I stop?

~ a beautiful piece of writing... i'm not a fan of silence... i'm a fan of poetry... so i'm really glad you'll keep writing... as you said (yesterday), a writer just writes every day... :)

And I notice you stay busy, my friend!

You keep writing and "we" shall keep reading....
Silence has many meanings and most times..Silence isn't so quiet
