The voice that only speaks violence

Her silence spoke louder than words Her eyes A window to her hurt Begging to be heard She thought that was something she deserved So why had she been ignored She roamed the earth like a ghost A lost soul hoping for more Hoping someone will help her Someone would see how hard she tries To not cry Despite her watery eyes She hadn't known peace Even within sleep Even her pain haunts her sleep She wished she could be Someone else To have a brain that wouldn't constantly turn on its self Words unspoken trapped in her mouth She wants to scream and shout Only silence found its way out She wanted help But she didn't know how All she wanted was to stop drowning herself Her body bore the weight Of the burden of hate A painful ache Her constant headaches To her it was funny how she was full of silence Begging to leave For anyone to see her constant pleas But anytime she tried She was denied the right To fight for a life That hides in plain sight The only thing that stopped her was her mind A place where it was hard to find A thought that was kind This caused her to be blind To a new life so she could leave her unhealed self behind She just wanted someone to hold her hand To understand And guide her to a life Where she didn't have to constantly fight to stay alive
