For years I've been silently screaming
SEE ME!
HEAR ME!
HELP ME!
But then what?
What do I do?
When people begin to look?
When people begin to listen?
What do I say?
Hiding has been defense
Silence has been my shield
Yet the light within me will still shine bright
For years I've been silently screaming
While I watched others
While I listened to all
While I served those around me
But now what?
What do I do?
When people leave for the slightest?
When people take away their love?
What do I say?
Conditions have been set
Lines have been drawn
Yet the light within me will still shine bright
I will not give in
To this frame of thought
I will not let the darkness prevail
I will continue to live
And shine the light
As I follow closely
In the shadows I have made.
