Silent Scream

This is real, nowhere near a dream,
I'm so scared and hurt, but no one hears me scream!

I can hear it myself, but what's wrong with them?
It's like I'm the one they decided to condemn.

The sound waves vibrate from my lips,
But somewhere in midair, the sound itself slips.

I walk around everyday
Pleading and begging in a silent way.

I use my posture, I use my eyes,
But it's useless; no one hears my cries.

I'm desperate for some kind of relief,
I'm tired of this unbearable grief.

How come no one can seem to calculate,
Just how I feel, that I'm in this state?

No one at all can see my pain,
Someone listen or I'll go insane!

Just hear my cry and listen to what I have to say,
And maybe I'll feel better today.

Just hold my hand and tell me it's alright,
Tell me there's nothing scary in the dark at night.

You broke my heart, but that's okay,
If you promise that by my side you'll stay.

Just hold me tight and let me cry,
Let me sob and tell you why.

I hate being alone, can't you see?
You're the only meaningful thing in the world to me.

Don't go away, I'm begging you,
I love you so much, I really do!

Just listen, even though it may seem,
That I'm not speaking, when really it's a silent scream.
