People always stay in memories

Not in life

I really don’t know why

Sometimes I want to cry

I wish to scream and shout

And let my feelings out

 

I am living like a queen

But still I miss something

I have nothing less

But I can’t feel happiness

 

Insides my bones am trapped

And with a skin am wrapped

Within myself I do hide

I feel no pain or joy inside

 

My life has come to a pause

In silence my days all pass

My heart has turned to numb 

I am just waiting for end to come

 

With no more hopes to persist

My dreams have ceased to exist

With no more paths to follow

My heavy heart is hollow

 

With emptiness all alone

I can feel my tears rolling down

I really don’t know why

Sometimes, silence makes me cry

Silence makes me cry
