quiet

by Kai - Aquarius

quiet i sit
alone in my room
thinking and thinking
until i make myself cry

quiet i sit
i speak only inside my head
i drive myself mad all the time
so much it makes me sane

quiet i sit
out in the rain
soaking in the gloom
leaking out the pain
growing cold under the black clouds
i leave and search for warmth

quiet i sit
far away from the fire
afraid it will burn me
scar my skin that covers my damaged soul
i would rather freeze
than feel the fire of hell
as i have felt it before licking my mind

quiet i sit
cold
and beaten
waiting to heal
waiting for someone to open my mouth
to quiet the war inside me
to show me my hope will bring me through
