A Silent Scream
Did anyone care about my emotions? Always sacrificing, my heart in motions. I gave and gave, but did you ever see? The turmoil within, the tears I've cried in secrecy. My mother's wish, a marriage to arrange, A responsibility to shed, without a second change. But did she care about my heart's desire? Or the love I shared, the soul on fire? He said, "Marry someone," with a careless grin, But did he think of the love we shared within? If I marry someone else, can I still share? My soul, my heart, my passion and my devotion? The answer is no, I'll be forced to conceal, My emotions, my love, my heart's reveal. A silent scream, a heart that's torn, A love that's lost, a soul that's forlorn. Separate ways, we part, my mother, My love, and My future husband too, Each chasing their dreams, but what about my heart, my emotions, my silent scream, anew?
