In the middle of the night I wake Careful of the sound I make I sit and think of all my mistakes All the pains I've had to take Bearing it like I have been handed a piece of cake So, in silence I grieve But on the outside a smile I wear Knowing a smile is all I can achieve So, I pray silently for the night to come near Then and only then can I give in to my fears And allow the free flow of silent tears. www.blissblaze.com/2015/11/poem-of-week-silent-tears.html?m=0
