"I shed a tear to the night
Burning my oil light.
Turning the volume high
Drowns out my voice.
Inhale. Exhale.
Yet, these toxic words
Still, ring above all sounds.
Head bowed; eyes closed;
Hands in prayers.
Silence answers."

Silent Cries is dedicated to me for the night I cried without any sound. Shaky breaths kept my heart beating despite how painful each breath was. Dark thoughts ravished my mind as I struggled to hang onto any sliver of light I could find within my soul. The burden was too much. Yet, the burden was all I had to keep me grounded in that moment. The pain. Give it to me. Let me suffer. My heart is already shattered.
