Angry Silence

There is an angry silence In the corner of my soul, It wasn't there when I was young, But I feel it as I grow old. It's a word that was not spoken In my shyness, slipped away, I should have made a statement But silence with me stayed. I don't like the feeling That is left within my being, I try to show my anger But it's only pain I'm feeling. I've tried many times To express my point of view, Only to be told You're nothing but a fool. The only thing that I can say Is when I need to take a stand, Silence owner takes my soul And shows my trembling hands. Lynn (Hanna) Barany
