Cause You Say Nothing

Quiet skin and sad eyes

When you are abandoned

You are left vulnerable and wise

You seek to be excepted and left alone

A part of something big or in a corner with a low tone

You encourage while being discourage

Why can no one feel what you feel

Cause you say nothing

You don't need any sympathy

The world is happy

Yet it seems so

Like a hot cooktop, it doesn't come close

To be quiet and crying

Forgotten heart and crying smile

Where you find only self

Ink and paper walk your mile

The issues come as life and death

Your world finds strength with each deep breath

You cover your face only to please, while you are never at ease

Why are the words, "help," too hard

Cause you say nothing

You long to be touched

The world is sad

Yet it seems so

Like awarm hug, it wants to embrace you

Not to be sad or forgotten
