The silence wasn't like the ones I'd known lately, though: it wasn't empty as much as chosen. There's a entirely different feel to quiet when you're with some-one else, and at any moment it could be broken. Like the difference between a pause and an ending.

It is what the dead close on, finally I imagine them Shutting their mouths on it, like a Communion tablet.
