These Words Scream

Hear me

I know you can hear me
I'm why you cry every tear
Please don't ignore me
It's time to face your fear
You locked me away thinking it'll stop the pain
You've kept me a secret just to escape all the shame
You convinced yourself your weak not strong
You even thought it was something you did wrong
I've been screaming just follow my voice
You've been robbed my child
It wasn't your choice
You're getting older with each passing day
You can block me out, but I won't go away
Acknowledge me here and I'll let you be
Know you were innocent and you shall be free
