The scream

I'll probably regret this but what the hell .
The scream

i know how it is to hurt all alone
When nightmares hide deep within dreams
And little boys hold all their secrets inside
But, when do I get to scream?

I know what it's like to be silent and brave
And stand still while fingers ream
And fight the tears back, when the night seems so black
But when do I get to scream?

I know what it's like to make yourself numb
And pretend you have great self-esteem
To live someone's life whom you don't know at all
Who smiles through his urges to scream.

And when I am dead and they open me up
They will find things were not what they'd seemed
For the child and the man and the demons will fly
Out of me, with a deafening scream.

I just want to give you the biggest hugs possible. Put you in my car and crank the music loud so you can scream as loud and as long as you need to. Your painful words always touch my soul and make me feel less alone. Keep writing. Let your scream out. You are safe.

@MyMonstersAreReal Thank you for your kindness and strength. I feel so lucky to have such a beautiful friend. We have every reason to be bitter and just shut down but you kept your beautiful soul intact . To me that is the sign of victory over the darkness.
