Silence | Original Poem by Shaye Patton

Silence



deafening
the sound of silence
the weight of no words
holding one under
the sea of sounds

racing
the thoughts in my head
tucked neatly away
years of hiding
resurface

the wall of protection
built brick by brick
with fake smiles
and the words,
"I am ok"

SILENCE

a never-ending cycle
never gone
always there
reminiscing

every piece of your life
 left behind

every decision 
yet to make

every moment you
not willing to share

silence 

the truth no one wants to hear
