Within Her



There is a voice within her
that doesn’t use words
it was a silent killer
quiet enough to kill her

there was a room within her
that only she could enter
it was huge and dim lighted
yet she could fill all the space

that room within her
well, she visits any day
to put the bags of pain and tears
and sack of weakness and fears

it is now fully loaded,
and unable to close it
yet she could still enter
because it was all within her.
