The Silent Man
Once a person of true happiness throughout everyone's heart
The man who could roar and be heard across the world
But this roar was of only for a short time
For one day he would start losing instead of gaining his strength
As he had to leave his friends behind him to continue on with life
So his roar could only be heard across the country
But then he was forgotten by his family to make him even weaker
Now he could only be heard across the valley
But one day he lost what was the most precious of all to him
His beloved left him for another which crumpled him to pieces
So now the man who was heard all around the world, was now silent
He is left with only the ability see and never feel as his heart is too weak
Forgotten to all and even history itself
The lion king turned into a silent mouse
As his life vanished, so did his happiness
