Fiction R Us

NOT A WORD (by me)

My lips are sewn shut
By some invisible thread I found.
This shroud of silence is comforting
When no one is around.
But when I’m with these “people”,
Who are really more like animals,
My heart morphs into the same thing
And I feel almost like a cannibal.
They snarl and jab at me
And I say nothing.
But my heart yells and shrieks
And begs me to say something
Something. Anything
As long as it stops.
Stop this bottled up emotion
Before my brain pops
And explodes.
My guts lay on the floor.
These “people”, these animals
Try their best to ignore
The pain they afflicted.
They step over me.
They try their hardest
So they can’t see
The torment, the unhappiness
They’re causing me.
I want to scream
“JUST LET ME BE!”
But I can’t, and I won’t
‘Cause it’s not that simple.
With the agony already inside me,
Everything else triples.
My heart is getting heavy.
It’s hard to carry
All the pain and anger.
I will soon wary.
Either that or explode.
Whatever comes first.
My mind and my soul have an endless thirst
To be rid of all the torment
These animals caused me
I want to yell
“JUST LET ME BE!”

Every time I finish a book,

I feel like I’ve lost a part of me and just sit there feeling empty
