Into the World of Silence

Slipping, slipping back into the world of silence, 

Once thought to have resilience. 

You have discovered a broken heart, 

In a world that came apart. 

With words that cut deep, 

You found that you were just cheap. 

Your soul cries out in pain, 

Only to be cast out in the rain. 

Is there no friend?  

Anyone you can depend?

Emotions beautifully expressed. Sometimes, we have only ourselves to depend on. Take care.

Emotive and expressive work. It is good to be able to write about our hurts which helps us to see which way to go from here/there to get our lives back on track. Thanks for sharing. Sara
