i'm
smiling widely
but
i'm
internally screaming
inside.

{E.I}
Kelly Weaver Jun 2016
I don't know
When she's coming back
Or when we'll be
A family
Or when the next earthquake
Will shake our house
As violently as
His voice did when
They fought.

I don't know
When he's coming back
Or when she'll be
In love again
Or when this hurricane
Will finally destroy
Every part of us
Until there's absolutely
Nothing left.

I don't know
When we'll be back
Or if we ever will be
But I do know
That my mother
Doesn't wear her
Wedding rings
Anymore.

She is trapped
Inside the walls
Of his words
Lost and confused

Terrified tongue tied
Screaming within
Constantly running
Around him...
Set her free.

No words can sum up the pain.
The pain I've felt for years.
No words can unstain the blade.
The blade I've used for years.
No words can mend my heart.
The heart you've crushed for years.
No words can take away my breath.
The breath you've held for years.
Carefully watching my step.
The steps you've controlled for years.
Tears streaking down my face.
The face you've abused for years.
Bruises line my body.
The body you've hit for years.
No nothing can take away the pain.
The pain you have inflicted for years.
The years of a girl undergoing abuse

i was dancing at the age of seven
i remember dancing to a tune in my head
a song no-one has played before
with the words written on the walls
for what despair waiting for me from there
Well, who knows
just where,
but right now with the lights dim
the toy-like audiences,
i consider my own kin
the further away i get from my room
the sudden flashes of memories fade too soon
for what is on the other side
is nearly destroyed
scurry back into the void
with no lashes of foul words to be said
and never again.
the negative conjoined with the positive

I've got a list of secrets
Secrets I treasured the most.
Like the face I make
when no one is looking,
Or the words I say
when no one can hear me.
Like the books I read
when I am scared at night,
Or the song I sing and listen to
when I'm alone.
Like the thoughts I hide
when my mind is screaming,
Or the tears I let out
before I sleep at night,
Or the fake smiles I wipe
after all the bad days.
All the things they'll never know,
Because I'll never tell, I'll never show.

I am quite.
Nobody listens!
Hear me out!
I am small.
Passive.
Invincible.
I just want to be heard.
Listen to my screams.
When nobody hears your voice

Drown out the sadness
Drown out the pain
Drown out the voices inside my brain
Pauline Morris May 2016
Come here please
I want to whisper all my pleas

I'm tired of screaming
Things that have no meaning

Falling on ears
That can not hear

Searching for the broken hearted
That so long ago departed

Come here please
Things are never as they seem
