a terrorized body collapses the mind
a terrorized mind is like a bird caged in the prison of ribs
the terror of being hated writes no poetry
the implosion of language happens on faceless lips
an unheard screaming etched in the flesh disturbes the silence of the dead
the kindness of light soothes me, the warmth of an embrace opens a whole new world
oh, I cherish all the unspoken poetry
of a sigh
