continue in silence

by Angela Hanska

jealousy, anger, envy

all rise up to claim my thoughts

all naught but a few hours ago

I forgot my worries

yet now, as you ask

"Are you okay?"

the light hath died from mine eyes

laughter falls heavily from my lips

my heart hath stopped its merry dance

 

I feel an outcast, ignored

yet I will not speak of this to you

for thou art my best friend

and to speak such ill begot words

would only damper your spirits.

so nay, I would not speak these words to you

 

and continue in silence...
