Shhhh.......
The gripping silence
The dying pain
Wanting to scream out
But afraid of the shame
Wanting to be like every other
Wanting nothing to change
Wanting to scream out
At an amazing range.
The crowd grows silent, silent still
Thinking that someone will say,
"Stop with the silence, nothing is coming,
Just all go on your way."
But no one says anything
And they stay there, on that landing
In nothing but silence
Not even understanding.
