Silence Knows Me
I yell out in pain, but only silence occurs
I wish for you, but only silence welcomes me
I drift away along the sea waves, but only silence embraces me
Silence is my treasured friend, it is the only one that can see my pain
Silence is the mirror on my wall, and for that, only silence can see beyond my mask
