Silencing My Tears Poem by Thabitha Marakalala

Silencing my tears

I have dwelled in lies for months and it feels like been years
Applying fears to hopes and hopes to fears
I remained cold even when the truth appears
Silenced my voice hoping this dark cloud will somehow clear

I guess I was desperate for love
Even looked for it in places it dint exist
I guess I been too stupid
I blame it all on Cupid
But its time
I swim in my fears
It's time I silence my tears

I have been singing this painful song for too long
I know I was wrong
To ignore all the signs
My heart just dint wanà let go
For it my soul had to remain strong
I somehow believed that you will someday grow
And our love will again glow

My foolish heart dint wanna accept what my mind already knew
I was better without you
It's time I end my souls bleating
It's time I silenced my tears
Save them up for someone who cares

I know my love for you i can't hide
But I believe il be better without you by my side
I know it might take me forever to get over you
But il do just fine without you

It's gonna be hard to walk away without looking back
But am certain il never come back
It's time I silence my tears
They won't be making it to your soft ears....
