I spoke
But no one heard
My words
Fell like shadows
In empty rooms

Silence
Took my name
Wrapped it tight
In darkness
And locked it away

I screamed
Inside my mind
Where echoes
Are the only reply

People pass by
Ignoring the ghost
Who walks
But never speaks

My pain
Was invisible
Like a wound
Beneath skin

No tears
No cries
Just quiet
And a heart
That shattered
In silence

Markus Gjengaar

Silence Wore My Name

And no one ever heard me scream

I spoke
But no one heard
My words
Fell like shadows
In empty rooms

Silence
Took my name
Wrapped it tight
In darkness
And locked it away

I screamed
Inside my mind
Where echoes
Are the only reply

People pass by
Ignoring the ghost
Who walks
But never speaks

My pain
Was invisible
Like a wound
Beneath skin

No tears
No cries
Just quiet
And a heart
That shattered
In silence
