When the World Was Silent

It roared deep in my heart It thundered in my being The pain of rejection scratched my soul and made a grating sound All around the world was silent I screamed out within I looked for a reason, I asked around I wanted to know, no, I needed to know The pain was deep rooted The feeling of going from something to nothingness Just like death or even worse for in death you do not know The world was unaware and in bliss Sorrow loomed in my heart and I screamed. Broken no! Let's be bent Let's reconsider, "compromise, I pleaded" I waited and waited and waited An answer never came The feeling of uselessness within The silence around The reverberation of hurt The dawn of loneliness arose with a large and gloomy cloak And darkness sat at the door of my being Waiting for the light Waiting for the lamp to return "It'll shine again", I heard. And hoped.
