CayCay Godwin Poet Free verse

Silent Scream

I strive to vanquish transparent
colors staining your true essence.
Your mood is false skewed, running loose,
and our known love is fiction trapped.
My heart insists you must come back.
I wish to leave you, or stay you,
slaying themes you now live each day.
Love now holds my loud, silent scream.

Powerful words. best wishes with the contest, hugs, Sara CayCay Godwin September 7, 2025 at 1:06 AM I wrote it because I've felt it, too, Sara.
