scream

scream

scream

I've been screaming for a while

at the top of my lungs as the sting in my eyes grow worse

but the problem is that it's never out loud, never for the world to hear

because why would I give them that power over me?

to hurt me more than they already have?

all the world knows how to do is take and take the very best part of you

and I'm tired of being a willing donor

always that shoulder to lean on, listening ear, carrier of everyone else's shit

but here I stand alone, drowning in mine

I'm human too you know?

I can barely keep myself up sometimes and no matter how hard I look there's no one

of course everyone...
