Kneeling Silence

Kneeling on the ground in her own backyard silently, without a sound She picks up the shards Broken memories reflected behind broken glass Scratching away at a spreading rash Please, just take it away Silence the carelessness you say Sleeping without any dreams Creeping up without any hope Weeping within her silent screams How will she ever cope? She prays for the day when you will take all this pain away She made plans for a land that she will one day understand Kneeling on the ground In her own room Her heart begins to pound and she turns into gloom She removes the shards from her hands They leave crimson rivers to follow Shattered and broken plans Despair is so hard to swallow 'Take my pain all away For this I pray Lord, I've fallen victim to the prey Don't let my happiness stray' Kneeling on the ground she will not make one sound Because no one is ever around to comfort her heart when it starts to pound
