Silent

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.
