Silence
The silence between us is deafening
We don’t speak, not a word to say
We have become roommates without friendship
We are now strangers living in the same place wearing rings with pain
I don’t want to be here but I made a commitment
There is no love living in these walls
The silence…there is just no sounds
None of us want to tell the truth so it's better not to speak
The silence is killing me…I need to tell the truth
We just look at each other hoping this would end ...we are having a silent war ...I am hoping you will speak so this unhappiness will end
We need to break the silence to set each other free…freedom is on the other side of silence
