Silent Screams
Can you hear my silent screams??
so loud they echo in my dreams.?
Behind this face that carries a smile?,
Lies a dark road that goes on mile after mile.??
My silent screams have been going on for years,?
I only express myself through silent tears??.
How can they hear these silent screams in my mind??They can't hear my thoughts if I keep telling them”I'm fine.”
??What can I tell them?
Silent screams I carry around.?
Feelings of sadness and being imperfect that hold me down.??
How can I explain so people understand this??
It's like walking around in a suffocating black mist??
It's holding on to happiness that easily slips away.
?It just escapes even when you want it to stay.
I can't explain how this feels; it's so extreme,?
So I hold my mouth shut to cover my silent screams.
