The Gift Of Silence(Tw)

Silence is a priceless gift
I so rarely get to receive
The world is always too loud
The shouts never ending
Bullies never shutting up
Parents never satisfied
Friends just using me
Siblings with their bickering
Late at night is the only quiet
The world still moving
But not in the safety of my room
Still the dread creeps in
The knowledge nothing changes
A suffocating quiet
Never the silence I crave
In my room with that quiet
I need it to stop
For everything to just go away
Head spiraling out of control
Thoughts running free
The only escape a blade
For my arm to bleed
That’s when silence comes
And I can finally rest
Being at peace
