A Silent Cry

Unknown behind the scenes
diminishing harsh words
with pain
pictured so real
a beautiful scene
laughing while crying
the words are mean
a smile in the view
while downsizing you
a jealousy streak
from humbled to meek
hidden behind a terrible peak
overriding it all
as one plans ahead
leaving the scene
to a real life
no pain no games
genuine love abroad
without harsh saying names
the time has come
no doubt about it
to and from
a life that's positive
new life begins
wanting to live
as time passes by
laughter of cries
a silent one
remembrance of joy
like the eagle soars
peace within
a Blessed life
rewarded in many ways
not an everyday strife
from day to day
thankful as life goes on
a journey made
on the way.
