Isn't admitting pain a sign of defeat? Thus a broken home is kept discreat. With words reaching only ears that don't hear, a parent's arrival is a child's worst fear. Screams shatter a quiet home. Only wanting to be alone. Tears streaming down his face, revealing their secret would mean disgrace. Wanting so much to run away, with nowhere to go he's forced to stay. Words of a Silent Soldier
While slowly waiting to feel God's grace, lying down in a solitary place. Simply staring at the cream white wall, the old woman's life can only stall. An oxygen tank hooked to her head; her family alread left her for dead. Empty words that only space fill, to live is a slowly depleating will. Knowing her days are limited to some, she prays her family will at least once come.
