Kids without education.
Patients battered with illnesses.
Social unrest.
Hungry, homeless vagrants.
...

Never too little avenues, only too little willingness.

A sudden clearance of clouds.
An immediate change of climate.
A gentle breeze.
A faint whiff of fragrance.

The screams subside,
Giving way to a peaceful silence.
Chains fall to the ground.
The atmosphere lightens.
A sense of relieve seeps through.

What lies beneath the plastered smiles?
What hides behind the "his" and "byes"?
What swims through the winding minds?
What goes on in the churning hearts?

A deafening silence amidst the noisy world.
Silent screams.
Do you hear the silent screams?
Clanking cuffs, painful groans.
Feel the goosebumps as the terrible silence ripples through your skin.
