Pain of Silence
Location
Days come and go, no stopping there
My friends all look away
This life it seems, is so unfair
There is nothing that I say
The pain I shove beneath my soul
And mask with jokes and fun
Soon creates an empty hole
From which I cannot run
The silence which I nestled close
I thought would keep me whole
Betrayed me still, misdiagnosed
I began to lose control
What shall I do, this is too great
The pain of silence grows
Someone to listen, hear, and wait
As the ache begins to flow
The burden gone
My soul can breathe
Night is dawn
I am relieved
