Silence screams
Within my dreams
I bury my thoughts in my mind
A place that no one can find
Why would anyone bother?
Even if they did, it wouldn’t make me any more calmer
It’s so dark here.
I feel something, a presence. The end is near.
It arrives with no warning. A black hole.
It’s come to swallow me whole
I get pulled in, the current too strong
I try swimming away, but the suffering will only prolong
So I let the force of the current take me
And I know exactly what my fate will be.

I drown.

And wake up from that horrible dream
Everything…was so extreme.
My heart is beating wildly
And my hands are shaking mildly.
All is silent save for my heavy breaths
My thoughts are jumbled, too complex.
It’s quiet here. Too quiet.
If I don’t do something soon, my mind will riot.
So then, I decide to break the hold of the dream.
And I shatter the deafening silence with a scream.
