Forbidden Words

~ Forbidden Words ~

I know my pain I can not speak of,
So no torture leaves my grin,
The unspoken fight Im losing,
Is shown upon my skin.

I cut pretty words into me,
I speak my f u c k e d up mind,
But blood is my only ink,
The only voice that I can find.

Each scar is a lost emotion,
A tear I could not shed,
Another time I’ve been silenced,
By the voices in my head.

Im muted in my cries,
Left battered, bruised and sore,
My only way to scream,
Is to continue with this war.

A battle against myself,
Where I carve all that I feel,
I hope one day I’ll be free,
And My words I’ll no longer conceal.
