“SILENCE”

"In our world are people who live in perpetual joy and happiness…

Others have been confined to perpetual sadness…

This is a life of no escape…

They suffer in pain…


Their pain, concealed…

Their tears unshed…

Their pleas, unheard…

Their scars, unseen…

There is no escape…

They suffer in silence…

The world of silence is one of darkness…

The world of the silent is one of several stories…

Stories better left untold…

These are stories of hidden truths, the bitter truth perhaps...

Better left unsaid, better left unheard…

For this, its victims had prices to pay.”…
