The Never Spoken Word

by Cantchangeme   Aug 30, 2004


Under my special tree
Is where I sit and think
I try to remember who I was
But my heart starts to sink

I try really hard to remember
When laughs and smiles weren't fake
But this time never was reality
There's only my soul left to take

My body has been broken
My mind is all but dead
Sometimes all I feel inside
Are these voices in my head

Words you think I whispered
I've never whispered before
So now i sit here motionless
Just staring into the floor

Maybe if you listen close
Laughter may be heard
Maybe if you think very hard
You'll realise I never spoke a word

Bury my thoughts
Bury my strife
Bury my arms
Bury my knife
Bury my feelings
Bury my tree
Bury my stars
You just buried me
