I have nothing to say to you,
I’m stronger on my own.
I don’t need anything from you.
I prefer to be alone.
Humans usually want something;
They, are rarely selfless,
And I do not have anything…
To give up, so it’s useless.
I can appreciate some things,
Provided by the pack,
But the bite of betrayal stings,
And I’ve learned from each attack,
That I can not depend on you,
And I’ve got my own back.

My rage can not be quelled,
By the pen, or by the sword.
Where only injustice has dwelled,
There can be no accord.
I saw someone murdered.
The murderer got away.
I was tortured, and no one cared,…
And have nothing to say.
People praise criminals,
While victims are forgotten.
Putting them onto pedestals,…
The guilty, and rotten.
So, my rage can not be quelled,
By the sword, or by the pen.
Where only injustice has dwelled,
Justice is a lie *Amen*

No one asked you to understand me,
Or asked for you to stay.
I could talk until I’m blue in the face,
Though I’d be misunderstood either way.
I don’t have the energy for people,
Who simply care to judge and assume.
My head is full enough already,
And there is no more room…
To worry what you think of me,
Or if you’ll accept me as I am.
Accept why I do the things I do,
And assume I have reason to be who I am.
So if you can not do this,
Then please just walk away,
For if you can’t see any good in me,
There’s nothing more to say.

You never called.
You never asked why.
You stayed away,
And there was no goodbye.
You didn’t care,
That the doorway was empty.
You closed the door,
And forgot all about me.
It’s true what they say,
You can’t pay people to care.
They listen emotionless…
Apathetic in your despair.
You open your heart.
Trust in the process,
And it takes only one bad day,
To see it’s all useless.
No, I didn’t die…
Well at least in a way.
I still have a voice,
But there’s nothing left to say.
I have no more words.
I gave them all away,
And none of them found,
A safe place to stay.
You never asked,
What I couldn’t tell.
You didn’t look for me,
And I stumbled and fell…
Silent.
