Don'T Speak

Your world changed forever
When you were only twelve
A psychopath with a knife
Left you speechless in hell

No more voice to cheer
No more words to speak
A vital mode of communication
Taken away in a blink

Now you speak volumes
Without ever saying a word
Your soul is screaming inside
You just want to be heard
