Been far too long since I felt such silence,
The kind of silence that keeps my worries at ease,
That keeps away the baneful waves of grief.
The kind of grief that had me wish that i were dead to emotion.
emotions that had me do just about anything to get his attention
I have seen how love makes some fools
I have seen how they think no more
How they are tricked by smooth moves
And tamed to play by their rules
The flaws they end up Sharing
Could be lies to have them concede
Then later treat them like some tools
I have lived through this many a time indeed
Far beyond the misery there could be peace
In the silence lies truth that is hidden
That they are unconcerned about the love I had given.
that I need to pack my shame and pain and just leave.
It was easier to ignore what might have been a burden
Since the truth that was masked would have made me grieve
It is even harder to just run and forget
Especially when he got on his knees and said please
asking me to not leave
I have lived through this many a time indeed
in a smooth manner, they always drift away
why should I be the one to listen
When my pleas where never heard
The lack of conversation, humiliating
Lack of explanation making me feel used
repeatedly it was done so leaving me bruised
Where there once was praise there is indeed disgust
I should listen more to my pain
it is screaming that it has had enough
With it, what had blinded me was gone
I was able to think on my own
And find the truth ignored
The silence gave me peace
to deal with the chaos ensued unblinded
now i bid that my heart may rest;
Though Plans to give up on love never work
It’s a door perhaps I deliberately leave open,
In search of peace it must try be closed
and rest from the battles i have had to fight
speech could be silver, but silence is golden
