Screaming from the inside
The anger gnawing within
Digging through the skin
Writhing in our lives apart
I’ve been trying to chase you outside
You keep creeping in again
Finding me happy or finding me content
The act is sudden, tastes of disdain
A metallic lullaby
Screeching in their ears
A wedding, some kids, wealth
A wife, some kids, we’re making it in every way possible
A wife, some kids, hollow, fake, it is a dream or a nightmare?
A life, some memories, I hope this isn’t how I waste it
My name feels like a sin, the way she speaks to me
Sleep, rest
I lay awake, bleeding out
Flowing through listless dreams
Fatigue, it’s killing everything she sees
Everything left for me to give
The taste is disdain
A maddening lullaby
Screeching in my ears
