The Silence was loud

The silence was loud

Like the heart that was once pounding

With blood surrounding

Once filled with life

But is weeping in sorrow

There’s no tomorrow

The silence was loud

Blades on the ground

Drowned in misery

Once slaved to its own being

Is free now The silence was loud People filled with tears But they were just being the selfish ones Making me stay here

This poem is about:

Me

My community

My country

Our world

I love how when reading your poem it paints a clear image in my mind especially when I read the line "Is free now The silence was loud People filled with tears But they were just being the selfish ones Making me stay here"

Poem gives a very clear image. Vouching for freedom and life. People being selfish towards others and acting like there is no tomorrow.

Some of the format got messed up so I'm glad it still can communicate that message. As someone who has dealt with Depression, I know the controversial topic of "You're being selfish for wanting to take your life. You have so much and what about me." But it's never the other way around. It's never about the person who wants to be free. Thank you <3
