Silent

Silent

in a world of hate.

My fate

to live

and wait

for a word

that never came.

Better

to stay this way.

My day

to waste

and play

with words

that sound the same.

Illusions

I came to believe.

My time

would come

to relief

my world

of silent shame.

Never

will I speak again,

of pain

I felt

so plain

or a word

I failed to claim.

Farewell

to all who claim,

or blame

my heart

that came

with words

that sound so lame.

Silence

is all I’ll hear,

I fear

or wish

my dear

when words

are burnt in flames.
