Why do we listen
To the noise that comes
From loved ones mouth
The heart we yearned
For how long do we
Patiently bear
The darts and jabs
And ice cold glares
Torturous silence
Let loose every time
When we try to
Make our point
The thread is stretched
Far too long
The bonds can’t hold
The strain that large
Someday will come
And they will crack
And world may come
Crashing down
