Silent Screams (Acrostic)

Silence fills the void of my existence,
Intruding upon others’ fragile lives.
Lingering through the deafening resistance,
Entangled in webs of little lies.
Never-ending thoughts are persistent,
Ticking like a bomb in disguise.

Screams unheard beneath my breath,
Cower behind distorted illusions.
Rhythmic beats within my chest,
Electrify with each delusion.
Atrocious thoughts go unconfessed,
Manipulated into anxiety’s seclusion.
Screams are silenced by woeful depression.
