Silence Is Golden? Poem by Melissa Koeman
Silence Is Golden?
Again hurt by words
Stupid words… that didn’t make sense
Maybe I should’ve thought: whatever, I don’t care
But I couldn’t because in fact it did hurt me like hell
Those words broke my heart
Why do people which I care about and love say such things?
Saying things without thinking first?
If only they knew the truth about me….
I know they would keep their mouth shut then
At least I know now how they really feel about it
But why was I again such a hypocrite for laughing along
and not saying anything?
Should I be silent?
Silence is golden… some say…
But against what price?
what a wonderful poem filled with insight and deep searching of how to live in the world the question- to be true to your true self or go along with the crowd of course in the end only one choice staying true to who you really are

i've discovered that when you hurt others and vice versus with words it is your Ego's disire to prove what shouldn't/doesn't need proving. Just be yourself like in my poem 'Be Proud of who you are' Well written. 10/10 Liz.
