Scream for Me

Secret thoughts

Scream for me if you would
Shout of my pain and heartache
Let the world know of my distress
For I can no longer lend voice to my anger
To my sadness grief and gladness
I can no longer ball my fists and hit the walls
Kick and yell and hate them all
I can no longer bear this time of waiting
For the dawn to come.

Don’t leave me to fight this world alone
I have run out of the strength to defeat my monsters
I can feel the heat of their breath on the back of my neck
And hear the thunder of their footfalls in my ears

I don’t want to close my eyes tonight knowing I will have
To start again tomorrow
