Thoughts swirl through your head-
Dancing, burning snowflakes.
The blizzard thickens,
You look out at the calm surrounding you.

The never ending battle of
fire and ice,
black and white,
life and death...

The torture of the screaming storm-
Stops-
leaving you with nothing.

(Suffer in Silence)

You mustn't speak of the barren and the hopelessness-
(Suffer in Silence)

The pain endured will end -in time-
(Suffer in Silence)

The world doesn't accept, no, understand

You.
(Suffer in Silence)

Your past, love, hopes, and future,
melt away-
The desert grows,
Nothing will satisfy.

(Suffer in Silence)

You mustn't reach out,
You mustn't cry out- help,
You mustn't show weakness.

The thought-
(Suffer in Silence)
of a world-
(Suffer in Silence)
without You-

tastes so sweet,
yet so selfish.

Who are you?

To think that no one would

Notice.

To believe that it would be

Better.

To embrace that you would be

Happy.

you are You,
and like me,
You-
Suffer in Silence.
