Description
Amazing how fast a world can change,By the crash of a tongue,
Narrowing of eyes,
People of hurtful things.
A family is one,
When we love, we forget,
Those things we despise, we dismiss,
For those we love.
How quickly hate can rise,
Screaming, yelling, cursing,
Gnashing of teeth, ripping of hair,
How innocent am I?
What did I do?
The silent one,
Quietly observing,
The anger passing over me.
From cries of hate to bellows of demands,
The innocent stay silent,
And we are the punished,
Words fading into a whisper.
Amazing how fast a world can change,
Just yesterday, we were happy,
Smiling and laughing,
Now, we despise.
I am tired,
Do I need this?
Or do I deserve it?
No, I'd like to think that I tried.
But how times have changed,
I refuse to referee,
To calm the waves,
Instead, I merely stay silent.
Words to Screams,
Screams to words,
Words to whispers,
Whispers to silence,
Amazing how fast my world can change.
