100 Naked Words

A story in 100 words.

Where once there was laughter — silence. 
Where once there was talk — silence.
Where once there was passion — silence.

He looked for a sign that she had existed. 
A sign that he had mattered.
A sign that any of it was real.

Only the echo chamber of “goodbye” in his head, his heart, and his home, remained.

He crawled into bed, closing his eyes hoping a new day might bring a sign, a sound, of hope.

The sun burst through his window. 
He awoke. 
He listened.

He heard what he feared most — the indifference of the dead, deafening shriek of silence.
