Silent Battle of the Quiet One

by KB - Taurus

there's a silent battle 
roaring in the soul
YELLING, SCREAMING, POUNDING
Why? What? the quiet one

there's a silent battle 
roaring behind that smile 
HOPE, FEAR, STRENGTH
they all battle within 
the quiet one

there's a silent battle 
roaring behind those eyes
DREAMS for the future
REGRETS of the past 
CONFUSION for the day 
yes, this is true
the quiet one, isn't so quiet

Reason for writing:

    Well, from my own experiences and those of my friends i know that many of us have let our souls declare war.  While hiding behind the name brands and smiles, trying to act like we're in control while we really have no clue.
