Pain

venom running through my veins
silently screaming
scratching deeply at flesh
pulling hair out by handfuls
ripping
tearing
scratching
get it out
it's in my mind
take it out
leave me alone
please
just leave me alone
I hate this
silence choking me
words pounding in my mind
release
please give me release
it hurts
just get it out
please
