Rawkward 

Adj. - Similar to awkward, in that it applies to situations in which nothing is left to be said. What differentiates the two is the sheer length of time created by the preceding "rawkward" moment. The severity of the silence comes into play as well, as usually all parties involved are not only rendered mute but motionless.
