LISTEN TO THE SILENCE

STAND UP AND SPEAK LOUD SONT LET WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK CHANGE THE WAYYYY

LISTEN TO THE SILENCE

 

YOUR SITTING THERE

NEVER TALKING

WONDERING WHY YOU SIT THERE

NEVER SPEAKING A WORD

WANTING TO SCREAM YOUR LUNGS OUT

AFRAID OF WHAT PEOPLE MIGHT THINK OF

YOUR THOUGHTS OR WHAT TO SAY

CARELESSLY THINKING OF NO ONE ELSES FEELINGS EXCEPT THIER OWN

NEVER THINKING HOW YOU FEEL DOWN IN YOUR SOUL

DEEP DOWN IN YOUR HEART

YOUR CRYING TO BE HEARD

YOUR WISH THAT SOMEONE WILL STOP AND

LISTEN TO THE SILENCE YOU BRING TO A ROOM

Great poem, I can relate to this as I have felt this way many times, especially when i was still at school, I was always painfully shy. I have found my escape through writing poems as you seem to be too. This one has a much better ending, it was an easier read all the way through.

This says a lot to me .. i know the feeling .. seems as if you are putting someone or everyone before yourself and people are not taking time to hear you or your story.. a very good poem and one i can relate to, i am a quite one too in things such as this ..
