I Cannot Scream
I need to scream. In rage, frustration and hatred.
In grief, despair and blackness.
There is no hope and little good in me.
My soul nothing but a dissappointment.
I feel no hope, no future, no no path forward that
does not end a full stop. No ellipsis here.
I need to let it out. All of the negative. All of the bad
before it can poison the little good left.
I need to scream. But someone will hear.
A scream to throw back the darkness
A scream to let in a little light.
But someone will hear and seek to know why.
And that will invite the darkness back in like
a lost friend.
I need to scream.
