Suffering in Silence
To suffer in silence is a terrible thing,
For there may be a remedy others could bring.
It may that we feel embarrassed to tell
Of our problems which stops us from being well.
It may feel our mind is trapped in a cage,
While nobody can know of our hidden rage.
So try to be brave and say what's on your mind,
For there may be a solution that others could find.
They say a problem is halved if first it is shared,
So mention it now and try not to be scared.
No matter what makes you feel saddened or peeved,
Once you have discussed it you should feel relieved.
You may now no longer feel distressed or annoyed,
And you can do all of those things that you once had enjoyed.
So get on with your life as your troubles have ended,
And be pleased the world as your mind has been mended.
