In Silence ..    I am just me, on a small blue dot in a vast universe. My words are but carbon in a sea of something lost. All …

Genesis' May 2013
sweet. quiet. obedient.
never once disobeyed your parents wishes.
so controlling they are.
never allowing you to be less than perfect.
Poor child
bullied constantly. taken advantage of.
how can you let this out?
well only you know poor child.
look into your stomach
and take a deep breath.
SCREAM CHILD SCREAM!
at your parents who believe
you should be beyond perfect!
SCREAM CHILD SCREAM!
don't hold back!
take action!
be rebellious towards
you dear mommy and daddy!
choking you with demands!
scream to those bullies
that never stopped judging you!
SCREAM CHILD SCREAM !
SCREAM CHILD SCREAM!
because you may never get this chance again!
scream now before life
takes itself away from you!
before you go insane!
before they lock your mind!
the chains you feel now child
wont go away till you resist!
your chains tighten
and restrain your legs!
your arms!
your voice!
SCREAM CHILD SCREAM!
the fire you feel in your chest
let it burn it is your freedom!
oh please child,
please scream!
scream for your misery!
restraint!
your desire to become normal!
child this will only end once
you scream!
use that fire inside you!
don't let this carry on forever!
don't let the oxygen escape without shouts of protest!
SCREAM CHILD SCREAM!
for all the pain
you have to endure everyday!
SCREAM CHILD SCREAM!
take a deep breath like its
your last!
SCREAM CHILD SCREAM!
for that make your heart
ache every single day!
for the freedom that was taken away
because your young!
for all the painful things those bullies said!
for your mind!
your sanity!
do it for your pride!
yourself!
a chance to become normal!
to be free from their hold!
So please!

SCREAM CHILD SCREAM!
The Scream

All my prayers have gone unanswered.
All my pleas have gone unheard.
The demons from you past have found you.
They take bites from your flesh.
You do not notice the damage.
All I can do is watch.
What separates us is too vast
I scream to draw their attention
I call on them to attack me
They laugh at my helplessness, my sorrow
I scream because I don't know what else to do
I scream because I love you
I scream because I'm scared
Terrified of losing you
Because we are good together
And that frightens you
I can't turn away, can't avert my gaze
I reach out for you, thinking that somehow
Maybe I can pull you to safety or least close enough to protect
I scream for you
I die for you
You think the demons are your friends
You turn away, you laugh as they consume you
And still I cannot turn away
I scream for you to remember
I scream
I scream
I scream
Through tears I scream
I scream for you
Because my prayers have gone unanswered
My pleas have gone unheard.
I have failed you
I scream that I love you
I scream
Until all there is, is my scream

An angst-y, uncertain period in a relationship inspired this. My angst was unnecessary, as is often the case.
