Begging
Begging
pleading
screaming in my head
all this noise
none of it heard
silence
all the world hears
listen
can you hear a sound
the pleading
the begging
does any of it reach your ears
the words aren't for you
they're for the dead
begging his return
begging for happiness
but there is not return
he's gone
never coming back
these tears are silent
no one can heal the pain
my yesterday was smiles
today is just tears
Tomorrow is yet unknown
but these tears won't dry
