Silently Alone...



I cant seem to stop the dreams at night,
 nor the thoughts during the day,
its like waves crashing in a dark cave.

Blue skies holding dark clouds,
as emptiness fills a religious shroud.

Telling myself none of its about me,
only God knows what Ive gone through,
 that none will see.

I write unspoken words from a dream,
as I grew it became what it seemed.

Mislead in life,
now I face its strife.

Silently alone,
in my minds home...
