Quiet Days

Do you ever have quiet days?

Where you don’t wanna speak

Cause if you do

It feels like something bad’ll happen

It feels heavy

It hurts but it’s numb at the same time

Do you ever have quiet days

Where everyone is screaming at you to talk

‘It’s not that hard’

‘Not until you use your words’

But the words just won’t come

Maybe you wanna talk but can’t

Maybe you just don’t feel like talking

Maybe not talking feels safest

Maybe it’s just a quiet day

And sometimes,

It’s just so hard

To not talk and be yelled at all day

And you just want someone to whisk you away

To tell you:

’I know, it’s just a quiet day.

And that’s ok.′

But until that day

Where hopes become reality

I’ll just have another quiet day

And pretend the yelling never botherd me anyway
