I am no longer bound

I live in the silence,

I want to scream,

But my voice is not heard,

I feel like I’m in a dream.

I live in the silence,

Never a friend,

All alone,

Abandoned again.

Betrayal clouds the air,

She was not my companion,

She is a liar,

I now live forgotten.

Who wants to be friends,

With the girl in the back,

With her hood up,

It’s just confidence she lacks.

I look up as someone come near,

“Hi. What to be friends?”

A smile spreads across my face,

I know my silence is about to end.

I nod with confidence,

I pull down my hood,

I smile at her,

The silence is gone for good.

A burst color,

A burst of sound,

I’m now alive,

I am no longer bound.
