The Sound of Silence
Scripture:
The curtain has closed;
No light filters in;
All they hear is
The sound of silence;
The expression of fright
Fills their eyes
As they try to escape
From this torment.
Daily they are traveling
Through the hard times.
They have no voice;
They can not
Articulate.
They are lost
In another world,
In another place.
They can’t escape;
They are bound by
Cords of terror.
There is no 'Why'
