The Silent Cry

by Mary

The door is open, so go right through,

There is no one else standing here but me and you.

I won't tell anybody if you decide to leave,

Everybody needs a little time to breathe

Just promise me one thing before you go,

The moment you run off let me know

I couldn't live with myself if I let you leave without saying goodbye

Please take this to heart, for it is my silent cry.
