The Silenced


Great minds

Unspoken words

Screaming thoughts

Never to be heard

 

Quiet voices

Always pure

Talking loud

Not meaning a word

 

Naive and lost

Too childish to understand 

What will it cost?

The shallowness, out of hand?

 

Forever close-minded

They idly walk

Until the silenced

Finally talk
