The Silent Man

Welcome to Scott Ransopher’s Poetry Podcast. Where I read and discuss my poems. I’m Scott Ransopher. Today, I’ll be talking about Silent Man. Let’s get started! In 2002, I wrote and typed Silent Man. You can read along with me in the description.
SILENT MAN
Silent man will never speak, he hasn't said a word
People think of him a freak, he's in his own world
As he walks you will not hear his footsteps in the dark
No one knows just where he lives, you see him in the past
Silent, Silent Man
And if you meet the silent one, he'll look at you a blank
You'll wonder where his life went wrong
His eyes, how deep they sank
One day hard working man, raising children best he can
Watching flames burning life is where his came to end
Silent, Silent Man
Silence is where he'll stay, it is his only friend
He hopes that maybe someday this silent life will end
One man's life so bitter, his heart you cannot mend
So silence is the answer until this madness ends
Silent, Silent Man.
