So long now I have silently screamed
loud within, yet no one hears
NO ONE HEARS
…..a background noise to life
through smiles and laughter
a life lived in pain
.......there was a time I was quiet inside
carefree, laughter days
How things change; News delivered
shattering the glass case of my life
The illusion revealed – peace is not promised
Challenges not equal, life so fragile
a weight to be carried – for me it could not be moved
There is no answer, no cure, no magic
Just cold reality of what is
Of what has been
Of a life passed
Stunted before it could flourish? …. NO
It bloomed so brightly!
In the peace of acceptance
No questions…. but a thirst for haste
In knowing her days would be short
Time unknown - - - how different our minds?
My child so brave, and me so weak
She shone SO brightly, she sang her days……
but me, screaming through every year
Strangling the cries within
A face hiding the fear and pain
She conquered! ……how proud was I
though always knowing she would leave me
such a torturous knowledge – no escape
No cure you see, no fairness….
She embraced her last sleep in peace
And my screams pierced my soul
.........Yet no one hears
No passes out of this life for me
Each day to be lived with the noise
Silent to all around me
They see the smiles
They see the smiles
They only want to see the smiles
They don’t hear
They don't listen
They don’t know
I will never feel peace again…
.....inside I silently scream
