Have you ever

Have you ever wanted to scream, scream, scream

But no sound would come out.

Have you ever wanted to cry, cry, cry

But the tears which burn behind closed lids refused to fall.

Have you ever asked why, Why, WHY

Only to be faced with deafening silence and unanswered questions.

Have you ever felt the agony of a thousand little deaths,

So sure you are unable to carry on

Only to wake and face a new day…
