Shhh...
There was a discussion among my group of friends about the reasons why victims do not speak up when it is necessary. There are many who do not empathise who blame them for keeping silent and said that because of their silence, they do not deserve justice. This irks me a fair bit as I have been there before on multiple occasions where speaking up or speaking out is not a viable option. Silence is the absence of noise The absence of speech The absence of opinions Silence is the coldness of no reaction The troubles of the quiet The stillness of timidity The mime of tension Silence is the chastisement of lamentations The withhold of murmurs The swallowed screams of victims The unheard sounds of death Silence is the prison of secrets. - Swit Marie 1220H 26th August 2018 Taman Bahagia
