Silenced voices,
unheard cries.
All the smiles,
all the lies.
People crying
all alone.
All with warning,
not unknown.
Signs around.
Blinded eyes.
Nobody caring
who lives or dies.
Trying as hard
as they can.
Tried getting help
but you still ran.
All these warnings
and all the signs.
People need to
read between the lines.
Smiles on faces
to hide the tears,
all because
you put them here.
Let's all hide
ourselves away.
Maybe people will
see one day.
They can ignore the screams
and the cries.
And just stay
behind their blinded eyes.

This poem is so true, People hide behind there blinded ways because there scared of the truth. No one wants to see others pain because they hold on to there own. This is an awesome image of everyday life, the meaning is sad but true, josh
