Silence

[Sammy]

They say that silence is golden

but for me the silence is loud

in my head the voices keep talking

and don't seem to know when to stop

I want to shout at them to be quiet

but instead I just panic and cry

because I know that the voices are not real

and that it's just in my imagination

They say do this, do that

go here, go there

maybe if they'd just make a decision

but instead they argue and fight

It reminds me much of my childhood

where everyone was always in arms

even then nothing was ever silent

I guess now it's a sign of my past

The visions that come and go

remind me of all that is gone

but inside it's still here, never to leave

and I guess it always will be

So why can't the voices just be quiet

and leave me alone in the dark

because I would be very grateful

if they would just leave me alone.

Hi Sammy

I have just read everyone of your poems and find them excellent, well done indeed. I shall not reply to them all individually.

This 1 in particular really touched me, perhaps hit home for me as it is very close to myself.

I really wish I could put into words what I gone/go through but I still at the stage of hiding a lot and covering up how I really feel and I do not know why I am still like it!!!

Take Care

Leslie
