Silence - A Life Once Lost

Only when I speak to myself

Is when the real

Substantial conversations

Flow together

Words travel gently off my tongue

I leave myself speechless

Thoughts die horribly in my mind

I retreat to nowhere

To understand, I destroy myself

These scars are here to stay

Understand the rules

Understand

You could have taught me a lesson

In believing these lies

You would have tortured me longer

Just to watch me die

Silence is a friendly

Handshake from an old friend

Someone I confide in

When I need a hand

Silence

Doesn’t exist like it used too

Silence
