Silent Scream

Searching endlessly

Begging to find

A place to rest this tattered mind.

An escape

a release

silent tranquility I seek.

The screaming inside

Is driving me out

pieces crumbling

sanity gone blind.

Just for a moment

let this mind be laid to rest

ease the burning within this chest.

The lips must remain sealed

not a soul can be trusted.

In the end they all judge

leave you lonely

busted.

Inside this madening shell I must stay

Silent

Stoic

Yet screaming all the same.

The world must never know

the pain it truly caused

So in solemn revelry

Mind and soul are lost.
