"HIDDEN"

 

I’m sitting in darkness,

Feeling my deafness

I look deep into the layers of black,

Aware of the feeling of the warmth that I lack

I want to lie here for the rest of my life,

Hoping for no one to find me,

Hoping not to see yet another bloody knife

I’m unaware of the world around me,

And suddenly I hear sound,

My head slowly comes up as I look around,

I try to seek where it’s coming from,

But nothing is found

My expression moves from grief, to terrified

After what happened,

Every sound that I hear makes it hard for me to think straight in my twisted mind

May I ask for you to stop the sound,

If you’d be so kind

I know nothing’s happening,

But i feel like everything’s crashing down

I feel like every happy moment in my life has turned into a frown

 

I burry my head back into the rags,

I want to lay here for the rest of my life,

Hoping no one will find me,

Hoping not to see another yet bloody knife

I’m unaware of the world around me

And suddenly I know that living on the streets isn’t living a life that’s free

 

I know that if nothing’s happening, yet everythings being crashed down-

- If i feel that every smile is being turned to a frown-

Then who am I to be the one who’s left sitting around

Who am I to be sitting here- alive- on the ground

 

I feel like I’m nothing,

And I burry my head back into the rags,

I want to lie here for the rest of my life,

Hoping no one will find me,

Hoping not to see yet another bloody knife

I’m unaware of the world around me,

And suddenly I feel that I’m hidden,

I feel like I’m invisible and no one can see me,

I feel like I’m far off, where no one can find me

 

I’m hidden,

Sitting in darkness,

Feeling my deafness,

I look into the deep layers of black,

Aware of the feeling of warmth that I lack

 

I am hidden,alone in the darkness,

I have escaped from my world of war and tragedy,

And I know I’ll never go back
