Silent Screams

The days goes on
till no one is in sight
I lie in my room
upon the creaky old bed
looking out to the night sky
The moon is full
and the stars shine bright
All should be well with such a sight
I can't help but to think of his name
Of his words
of his thoughts
of his every saying
It hurts but that's okay
The pain makes it real
The pain makes it bearable
The veins expand in my temples
The angst stuck in my throat
The screams of agony raging to be released
But never are heard
My body seems to go numb
Yet all pain is felt
The punches, the burns
The screams killing me from the inside out
I can never let them out
Because then he will know
He can never know my pain
He can never know my secret
His inability to notice
makes it almost easier
He can't know
He won't know
The silent screams I scream
in his honor
