Say Something

shutting it out

keeping it in

silence breaks

screams start

voice of hurt

hand of pain

stay away

touch not

backing away

stumbled twice

seeing the candle

little light of mine

shut me out

close the door

silence is loud

screams in my head

sleeping tight

wondering how

i get through the night

locks and chains

bind me selfishly

breaking away

becoming free

run towards 

the irrodesent glow

warm heart there

love to show

entry to a gateway

stepping in to a new

breaking out

seeking shelter

swimming for shore

let me know

i am there

let me feel

what you dare

say something

do nothing

say anything

show me the same

night time has risen

time to slumber

resting into a place

of perfect peace

until then..

say nothing...

it means everything
