Silence

What is it about words

That stir emotions deep within

What is it about silence that fulfills

In what it cannot give

I cannot live

With a pen and pad

As my only companion

Yet I cannot speak

To a world already damaged

I can no longer stand this

State of not reaching

I’ve searched so long for answers

The questions lost meaning

Internally seething

My hearts rapidly beating

In my stance

Of awkward feelings  

No longer pleading

Embracing sounds unheard

Speaking in voice

Without using words

Is hardly understood when told

The listener

Cannot fathom my being

Lost in a world

Of illusionary thinking

Close your eyes

Keep dreaming



Words upon deaf ears

No One Hears Me

SCREAMING
