The Silent Scream



If these utterances could be clothed,
And made presentable,
Then is it at all possible
I may be understood?

But silence has a habit
Of closing in around
The scream,
Leaving it unheard.

Leaving me without a voice,
Without a choice.
Darkness falls,
But it's not still,
Only ill
Can come of this
Thick, cloying, velvet blackness.
Name it!
Shame it!

But you can't, can you?
