Shadows of a Silent Cry

Shadows fade in the rearview mirror

Echoes of a story I can't deliver

Flipping through those faded pages, scars reveal their tales

World keeps spinning, yet my heart feels frail

Tripping on memories, lost in the past

Trying to find a way, but it never lasts

Hiding behind these walls of hurt

Silent screams, in the dirt

Words trapped inside my mind

Can anyone hear my cry?

Help me, I am slipping, falling through the cracks

Pain resonates like a broken bone, no turning back

Every memory’s a shadow, playing in my mind

Can someone hear me, see the tears I hide?

Stuck in limbo, lost and alone

Dreams deferred in a life unknown

Stories left untold, whispers unheard

Yearning for a voice, for a prayer

So here I stand, with my cry at the edge

Hoping for a hand, a breaking of the ledge

Can anyone hear me? A silent plea

From the wounds of my history
