Quite | Poem

I want to keep quite
So no one has to deal with me
But at the same time I feel like screaming
So someone notices me.

My eyes,
My heart,
My mind all
Are full with emotions
But my mouth is kept closed.

I'm not sure
If anyone would listen
Or ever care to say the least
And if they did
I don't want to be a nuisance
Like I already am in life.

I'd like to scream
But if I did
I'd cry
For all that I hold
Isn't mine.

Not happiness,
Not a smile,
Not him,
Not a heart.

My problem is
I'm afraid to fall
And not be able to fly,
I want someone to catch me
So I'm not to hurt to fly.
