Silent people are many, many and many

more than you can count

anywhere and nowhere

rich free spirits with no voices nor money

a million times they tried to speak, write or express

wanted to scream louldy or in the darkest nights confess

but it won’t reach anyone's ears

no one cares or hears

when it falls on deaf ears

it won’t penetrate the heart.
