Silent Screams

hope turned upside down
there was no rescuing her now
a willow tree loses its leaves far off in the distance
a humming bird mute with melancholy misery
a crow circles around her head
cawing as if the devil himself were upon her
what brings on this sudden sadness
the sky is blue
the leaves are green
peace is in the air
but she lacks this serenity
she cries out for help silently
she smiles to on-passers
wondering if they see through her thick wall
she's tried too hard and so long
its become easy to fake
