A Deadly Silent Cry

One night I was awakened by a loud cry, which I think came from my own inside. When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a deserted land, wandering alone around, in search of what which I could never find. I looked at my hand to find your hand , but I found nothing , other than the ashes of the sand. I looked around to find something, but I found nothing, other then the weeping land , unable to shed tears so sad. I tried to hear something , but I heard nothing, other than screaming wind, and turning into ghostly dusty devil behind. And when I moved forward and looked backward, I found the land behind me turning red, with bloody footsteps of mine, injured by the thrones of your memories from inside. I tried to shout aloud , cry aloud from within my soul, to ask Why? you made me play this role, but nobody could ever hear my sound, even if I cry aloud, because this sense of loss has silenced me forever , from which I could recover, never ever in my life, and the only thing left with me, is the silent cry, nothing else only a silent cry which you could never hear even if you try.
