Silent voice
Aantari Jul 2019
The words in a prayer for a loved one
It's far more powerful than what you may say to them
Or what is heard by everyone else

A silent voice of love
passion
hope
and protection from harm

Is something everyone deserves.

Very much alive
Aantari Jul 2019
"It's freezing but it's not even winter yet,
I'll just wrap myself with the cold duvet
That ought to keep me warm,
and I'll lay very still,
That way no one would see me as being alive

Oh, and I'll keep my wrists locked beside my hips,
Eyes glued shut,
Legs ******* together,
I'll appear as dead then."

Breathing as slow as possible with every second,
Struggling to stay still with every heartbeat,
Oh she was very much alive.

Just screaming for someone to rescue her,
Only a tension she can remember of her vocal cords

Little did she know her never-ending nightmares,
are just figments of her imagination.

Away
Aantari Jun 2016
I miss the feeling of being safe,
feeling of being protected,
feeling of being at home,
my sanctuary,

but you would never let me in again.

— The End —
