Sometimes speaking can't suffice <br />Or hold weight to the words <br />That want to be said <br /> <br />We bare this substance <br />In our hearts, a dense gravity <br />Pressuring our hatch doors <br /> <br />And as the liquid trickles in <br />Our vessels sink under <br />Sheer mass of shared tears <br /> <br />What have we to say unto others <br />Which we will not utter to ourselves? <br />If we are not who we say we are... <br /> <br />To recollect on our past <br />And mirror it to our present self <br />We cannot amount to what should have been. <br /> <br />Instead we must keep steady and move forward <br />Marching beyond the beat and speaking loud <br />And if screams come out, let the world hear them anyway.<br /><br />Mikey Bachman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/serenity-in-silence-2/
