Scream

I want to find a place to scream 
A place so quiet my shriek will sound like the cry of an animal
A place so dark no light makes its way in 
A place where I can scream till I stop breathing 
Till my lungs ache and my throat burns 
Till my eyes no longer shed tears and my heart no longer hurts 
A place where I can just fade away into the darkness 
Where I don't have to feel anymore 
Where it can be numb and finally rest 
Death is that place……..
