Words Not Spoken

16 3 3
                                    

The anger boils in my stomach,

The sorrow spills from my eyes;

This world does not want me,

Not even the baby blue skies.


My anger is controlled,

I know what I say;

But more my concern is

What I don't that day.


No one hears me,

The distress I am in;

The agony I so want to speak,

But feel to speak it would be a sin.


So I keep it all inside,

Until I no longer can;

They come out in torrents of tears,

Or are a full force blast from a fan.


Quiet, alone,

A mistake manifested;

My anger seeps away,

But my sorrow's always cresting.


The people I decided to like,

The ones who I thought liked me;

Were just pretending and don't,

And leave me drowning in this sea.


No one thinks of me

As being human too;

They just think of me

As a chore they don't want to do.


The sorrow in my eyes,

My words unspoken,

The distress I feel,

They feel as an achievement token.


So, until I can take

Absolutely no more,

I'll have to stay

On this broken, weeping shore.


I see that you don't want to know

What I have to say;

Well too bad because I have to speak

These words not spoken.
