Trapped



My slient screams go unnoticed
My darkened dreams unchecked
The emptiness is all consuming
Will it steal my breath away?

Everything around turns grey
I'm not sure if I should resist
As the color slowly fades away
The numbness  only persists.

Silence can be so much louder
Then any spoken  words
So all these days will pass me by
My thoughts still left unheard.

I my thought my only option left
Was to end my life
So I planned to take pills
Or cut myself with a knife.
