Images of Silent Screams

Images of silent screams
tired eyes and broken dreams
wasted tears and bitter thoughts
dashing hopes that life has brought

walking past dark painted roads
half naked and freezing cold
neon colored burnished tears
taking baby steps, trembling with fear

obscene memories, bruised and raped
in my subconscience, videotaped
yet still walking on these roads of clay
fck what happened yesterday

building castles of plasticine
eager to know what's left unseen
building new hopes, carving new dreams
getting rid of these silent screams
