Prideful Pain


Screams of silence, locked inside
A troubled heart so scarred by pride
The fear to ask for help in life
That turned my mind to bleeding knife

In silent screams and bone-dry tears
I try to hide from deepest fears
The ones I know I can’t escape
-From dreams of life I’ll surely wake

If the chance came once again
To end this life of silent pain
Would I then turn to silken steel?
And live in dreams for ever real
