Challenge of the Week CXVII
In Total Silence. Don't make a sound, write in whispers if you must. The theme is silence. Fiction or non-fiction, poetry or Prose.
I am no longer bound
I live in the silence,
I want to scream,
But my voice is not heard,
I feel like I’m in a dream.
I live in the silence,
Never a friend,
All alone,
Abandoned again.
Betrayal clouds the air,
She was not my companion,
She is a liar,
I now live forgotten.
Who wants to be friends,
With the girl in the back,
With her hood up,
It’s just confidence she lacks.
I look up as someone come near,
“Hi. What to be friends?”
A smile spreads across my face,
I know my silence is about to end.
I nod with confidence,
I pull down my hood,
I smile at her,
The silence is gone for good.
A burst color,
A burst of sound,
I’m now alive,
I am no longer bound.
