Silent Agony
     by Nancy Faulkner
 

 
Does the truth stay hidden,
waiting for another day
to reveal the fight as remedied --
Or, until it comes more easily,
or happens by itself,
without the struggle to succeed?

If these things are so, then truth is passive,
and will not fight
or struggle when it's all uphill --
Or try to overcome the pain
of those who live in silent agony,
because our honesty stood still.

If we are doomed to live in quiet resignation,
without free will
or bold determination --
Then we relinquish our humanity,
while we carelessly engage
in our own annihilation.
