Silence In Solitude

Silence kill faster than death but I have being in this for years, so it makes me to write on this.

————

There is a hole in me

A hole in the spirit filled with tears

I try to hide it

But my eyes flood more than a sea

I locked up to all ears

Keep drowning in them

And pretend all is well

Sometimes, I try to put on a dancing face

But it carry a flame of fire burning in me

I used to assume that my sky is blue

Not knowing it full of multicolors

I keep myself in a world of my own

A world full of empty

My night taste the bitterness of my tears

And all walls painted I am drown

I have being silence in solitude,

Despair and anguish for years

But still I tell myself

Everything is alright

Though I tried

To refresh my heart and memory

But still I feel weary

I tried to forget everything

But it was too risky for me

I tried to do so, oh I tried

So I see writing as an escape roots

For me because no matter how hard I tried

I still failed to make things better

And I end up crying like a new born child

Oh, I feel the loneliness of my life
