Oh where is thy voice?
In the depths of my soul, a storm rages on
A silent pain that few have known
A weight that presses down on my chest
A burden I bear, and try to find rest
The pain that is so loud within,
The tears I cry, are tears of pain
The screams I make, are silent refrains
The wounds I bear, are deep and wide
A heart that's broken, and a soul that's tried
The world outside, is unaware of my strife
They see a smile, but not the pain of life
They hear my laughter, but not my cries
They think I'm fine, but they're not looking inside
The silence is deafening, it's a heavy weight
A burden I carry, a constant debate
To speak or not to speak, to share or not to share
The fear of judgment, the fear of being bare
I wish to write it out and let my words flow
A cathartic release, a way to let go
Of the pain and the hurt, of the tears and the strife
A way to heal, and find a new life
Dear Sisters,
If you're going through silent pains,
Know that you're not alone, you're not to blame
There's hope and there's help, there's a way to heal
And though the pain may linger, it's not how you'll feel.
You can send a DM, let's connect and talk about it
Don't stay too long keeping quiet
One Love
