I stay silent
As the world goes on
Without me.

I stay silent
As I weep in
My room quietly.

I stay silent
Because there's no
Point in talking.

I stay silent
Because what I
Have to say
Some won't take
Lightly
And the chance
My words get
Through is
Unlikely
But the fact that
I said something
Might be untimely
Listen as I speak
As I try to
Politely.
