Silent suffering
I suffer so in Silence
I hold it inside of me,
The hurt,
The pain,
The anger;
Afraid that someone might see.
I suffer so in Silence
Afraid to set it free,
I keep it locked away
And pretend it’s not part of me.
I suffer so in Silence
I want to let it out,
To flow away, you see,
But instead
I suffer in Silence
And only talk to me.
