Screaming Feathers

Screaming Feather's

The echoes of chaos ran through his head
Sitting on the edge of his king-size bed
Placing his pillow over his face 
The feel of his four-day stubble 
On his custom pillowcase with ruffle lace
His head has been in a sort of bubble 
Pressed against his lips was tight 
A neanderthal scream he let it go
The feathers absorbed the blow of the scream
Just in time to lay down to dream 
He closed his eyes just for a minute 
The feathers released the cries that he wept
An echo of screams just came out 
The feathers only hold the doubt
