the gasps and the gaps
the aching space between thoughts
electric silence

Thanks for reading!
Author's Notes: Had this thought/idea in my head. So, published it. I think the song Girls Who Play Guitars by Maximo Park may have influenced it...
Here are some more mutterings, word abuses and literary crimes:

Yeah, this work well with or without the romance.
Yup, totally works this way too.
Short and sweet! Well done, Paul!
Hey hey!! “Electric silence” sounds awesome. I’d have some of that! Reminds me of something I’m trying to do to listen to the silence more..like a meditation technique. Great song too just gave it a listen. Haven’t heard that in so long I didn’t recognise it at first! So thanks for adding that too. ☺️👍
Oooo, that was so deep and clever! I loved it! 🍩🥐
Well done.
Your electric silence was brilliant.
You really are an incurable romantic at heart, Paul!
Well, your idea made a perfect senryu! It does exactly what it should and does it exceedingly well! Bravo!
