SILENT CRY

I’m a car
sent to the junkyard
I’m a sock
that’s got a hole
I’m a muffler
that’s too noisy
I’m a shoe
without a sole
Like a crack
here on the sidewalk
You avoid me
every time
I’m the empty
parking meter
That’s always
out of time
CHORUS:
I’m the secret that you couldn’t tell, the whisper you ignored
The one night that you didn’t brag about the time you scored
The coin tossed on the counter, a tip of no reward
like a crumpled piece of paper … the silent cry that roared.
I’m the billboard
never read
The alley
that you missed
The bullet
that escaped you
And the stranger
you dismissed
The dog
too far beneath you
The broken cup
you tossed
The song
that just escaped you
And the busy street
you crossed
CHORUS:
I’m the secret that you couldn’t tell, the whisper you ignored
The one night that you didn’t brag about the time you scored
The coin tossed on the counter, a tip of no reward
like a crumpled piece of paper … the silent cry that roared.
