Silent screams
Caught between the id and ego,
Wondering which to let go.
Chaos echoes in the mind,
Drowning in the depths of thoughts.
Wanting to scream but without a sound,
Talking to oneself, hoping nobody will notice.
Quiet as a grave at the hearing of those voices,
A fragile image, easily broken into pieces.
The ache it brings is hard to bear,
The weight of sorrow, the burden of tears.
A shattered hope, a broken dream,
From within hears the silent scream.
