Paying the Price of Silence
Silence was my savior,
and silence was my end.
Silence was my only friend,
but I paid the price in the end.
I wouldn't speak when I was young,
No matter what the problem,
I silenced my tongue.
Inside I was crying,
but you couldn't really tell.
Inside I was screaming,
please release me from this hell.
As an adult I broke in two,
in pieces I did fall,
I kept the silence over the years,
and put up a big wall.
I had a nervous breakdown,
at last I had to speak,
even I was surprised
at what I had buried so deep.
Talking was the beginning,
to the healing of my soul,
and let the past and demons
give up and just let go.
