Silent Cry

Premonitions of a vindictive kiss. Seeing the shadows of a hand that makes one flinch. Scurrilous language that burns in one's ear, So clear, One's eye's began to fill with tears. Waiting for the next blow that thrust down through one's soul. Hearing a voice repeating the words.. Stop! Please! Help! and No! Repeated hit's sends one to the floor. Sliding, Crawling, Reaching, Trying to get to the locked door. A silent whisper clears the air, One finds a mirror and begans to stare. Trying to hide the reminder of one side. Going around loved ones with the same old lie. But why hide the pain that just passes by? So blind to the others mind, So clueless to the forbidden sign, So ignorant to the streams of water that covers a face with a ' Silent Cry' Tiffany Saxon
