Silent Screaming

by blisss *gemini* - Not entered

There!  Can you hear it?
I can hear it echoing
the shrill, persistent cry for help
it's so loud I can hear a pin drop
the distored silence creeps into the room
and warms you to the bone
I'm shivering
Do you feel it?
I can feel the anger
the hatred, the love
I want to run free
but the chains are too heavy
untie the ribbon that holds us down
let us run free
I don't want to hear that silent screaming anymore.
