Silent Killer

Silence was my friend no one knew of the harm done to this body, no one knew of the banging screams against this smiling door that everyone saw. Our parents damaged the innocence that laid in wait We remained silent, this treatment Is normal is it not? Silence killed the beauty inside, welcoming idle guest that became permanent residents. But still we remained silent like ease-droppers, hearing but not helping. Silence became our enemy. For who would believe the dotting parents are monsters under our beds keeping out cries for help silent among the world.
