Things I Never Said

Silent Screams

Black;

completely desolate.

Silence;

not one sound.

Laughter;

has died with the wind.

Colour;

had faded with the seasons.

There are gloomy faces

surrounding you now.

Miserable and selfish;

you hadn't thought of them,

you hadn't thought of me.

So dark,

it might as well be night.

Where is the sun?

Where is the light?

Did it die too?

Like a bird,

I long to fly away

but I'm weighed down

by the scorching ice

keeping me

trapped.

Nowhere to run.

Nowhere to hide.

With this monster you left

I must abide.

Listen closely

you can hear my

silent screams.

My only chance of escape

is within my dreams

but

he is my nightmare

my biggest fear

evidence is in the mirror.

What have I become?

starved, bruised, dejected

nobody loves the broken and dying.

Only you could have saved me.

Where are you now?
