Sound of Silence

Every raindrop shouts, drumming on the roof Its violent rhythm embraces the heavy air Strumming monotonously on a pale glass window, I'm lying in bed, his smile still plays on my head Indulging myself in sentiment, I reminisce how he stared... so sweet as freshly baked gooey butter cake. 'Twas yesterday when I glimpsed his face through the door. My heart beat too fast, what a dumb coward I was. I've just felt lifeless for he stole my soul Please unchain my heart, completely trapped. Despite the noise of rain, it's still a melody with no tone. I should say "it's enough" in a flood of tears, unrescued and drowned to the sound of silence.
