Silence Never Dies Poem by Monica M Engeler

Silence never dies
Silence never lies
But silence can hurt.

I lye in my bed alone
The lights are off for the night
There is no noise around.

The silence is dead
I rolled my eyes around
There was nothing but blackness.

My thoughts were wild
My heart was pounding
Alone so alone.

The silence was so alive
It cried tears of fear
I did not want to dream.

I pulled my bedsheet's higher
The warmth relaxed my mood,
But I was still alone.

So alone at night,
I looked for comfort,
There was none around.

I turned the music on.
The Sound Of Silence mellowed the mood.
My eyes slowly closed tight.

I fell into a dream that took me to another land,
I was running wild,
The silence continued in my dream.

I just ran and ran to nowhere.
I could not talk,
I tried to cry for help.

I could not stop,
I just ran and ran,
There was no end.

The light finally brightened the room,
My eyes opened wide, and the dream was over,
My heart was pounding tired.

The darkness was gone,
My bed covers were off me now,
The light glowed warm ray.

The silence was no longer scary,
It was another day,
Lets start the day over.
