- Lonely Screams of Pain -

Listen to the silence the silent ... nothing language-independent word Silent screams of pain loneliness that is currently and loneliness luggage tomorrow Slowly creeps into darkness shadows as an eternal companion The total feeling of emptiness, disappointment and sorrow A longing for tenderness, touch and love The butterflies are gone ... they've flown their way Left me here alone - abandoned the covenant of love Tears fall like silent thunder Loneliness and fear behind the mask The mask falls when the tears come The silence of tears and sorrow Swollen, teary and red eyes Trying to catch a ray of angelic light 27.11.2013 A-L Andresen :)

Beautiful written and very strong emotions, I think my favorite part about your write is the mask comes off with the tears, I know that hiding feeling all to well... I try so hard to mask it but it's something that no matter how hard you try it reveals itself to you. Very beautiful.

How terribly sad and lonesome. I hope this isn't autobiographical, but perhaps it is from what I read below. If so, I'm sad for you, and hope life will be better soon... Jack
