Silent screams

by Danielle   Jan 29, 2007


Today you told me the news,
something you kept,
intentions good.

i sit here in this box,
unable to leave.
you stare looking for a response.
i cant, it hurts too much.

finally i break.

it hurts, and i hate it.
my flesh burns as the acid tears roll down.
there is no comfort,
there is nothing.

i am dark and lonely,
and the only thing that kept me sane,
will soon disappear.

it was mine, and you took it,
now i'm here paralyzed unable to move,
silent on the floor.
relating to the cold blank tile beneath my cheek.

my skin crawls inside,
i begin to feel sick,
and i cant stop it.

the fire within burns hot,
i begin to respond,
silently screaming amongst my darkness.
