Silence Is Golden, Silence Is Safe

Silence is golden, silence is safe, no judgement, no fears, Silence is free, silence is here, you cant be turned down, you cant be bestowed, people cant tell you no, especially when your ideas are turned down, even if you truly have something to say, but they feel their idea is worth more. Silence is safe, silence is Golden, it speaks many words, yet nobody hears, you don't walk away in tears, you don't hang your head, people judge you because your quiet, they think your shy, they don't take the time to really truly look inside. I wish I could be more vocal, I know It's inside of me, but so many people have beat me up for being outspoken, so it's really not a good token.. Silence, silence, silence, let them guess, let them look inside of me, my head I don't hold up high, for fear of them not believing me, I want them to wait for me to speak, I have built up thoughts, fears, worries from so many years of waiting, stepping on me, walking past me like I'm not even HERE! My inside thoughts scream to be heard, I look up momentarily to maybe catch their eyes looking at me, then when our eyes meet, its quick to look away, for I know the eyes are the key to our soul, and I know that my soul is empty, so why look inside...

Silence is golden, sometimes. And safe to only those who dont want to hear the truth. I can relate to this and writing became my way of talking. But lately i've been able to speak out my mind but only in certain siuations. Stay strong Jennifer

Silence is safe; silence is a wall, silence is where the heart recedes. The world is a big place open for you. The trick is to find others who see as you do. Just my thoughts on yours.
