The silence of my friend brings tears to my eyes
A great confusion and turmoil in my heart,
This turmoil never dies or vanishes
It is uncomprehendable with mixed feelings that taunt my mind
Spending sleepless nights alone every day
Pandemonium racks my mind,
a great chaos plays in the life
wonder if others will also be the same
It’s like a corona in the sunlight, a shadow
It is a never-ending eclipse, with no escape from the pain
Waiting for the eclipse to end, to get freedom from this pain
But it’s like being in chains, with no way to escape
My friend’s silence breaks my heart, collapses and shatters my mind
I’m lost, unable to concentrate in anything,
Everything I do ends in mistake and wrong
I search for someone to share my pain
Some one to blame, but who’s to blame when my friend turns away?
It’s like shedding tears underwater, no one notices my pain
My pillow is soaked with tears, a design created by innocent twin eyes
In this silence, I’m left to face my fears
With no one to listen, no one to wipe away my tears.
