Silence... I don't like it. It frightens me, And makes me feel alone. Then again, I usually feel alone. Even without the silence. We have lost everything. Our love, our possessions. Even our hope. We have lost faith. Our love, every emotion. But whenever you feel like you have lost everything, Think of me. And I'll try to regain hope. Just for you. Standing outside. Alone in the rain. The darkness consumes me. I scream. No one can hear my cry. And I am left alone. I dream of magical lands And tiny fairies. But those are happy. I don't have these dreams often. Most nights, I have nightmares. Death and destruction. Fear and loss. I scream and cry. Unheard to everyone. I continue to scream. Then awake, tears streaming down my face. ©1998 Catherine Court Back To Poetry This page hosted by Geocities
