NOT BETTER

Not better, not worse

Still stuck in the same curse

Not certain, not sure

Still searching for the cure

––––––––

Unknowing, unwilling

Whiling away the days

Tying, untying

The noose and its ways

SCREAM IN WHISPERS

Whisper, whisper

As I grab cloth

My heart aching

Everything quaking

––––––––

Don’t yell, scream

My mind tells me

My heart wrenching

The world shaking

––––––––

I need to hear my voice

I whisper to calm down

Racing heart, aching brain

Treat it as if it’s a game

––––––––

Don’t let them hear

They won’t understand

Don’t let them know

Or they’ll just make plans

––––––––

I want to scream, I need to

But I whisper through the tears

Trying to calm my fears

Fingers aching for some pain

––––––––

Shut down the lights

Sit in the dark quiet

Hear the devils whispering

Feel them passing

––––––––

I must not give in

I must stay strong

I know I should pray

But what should I say

––––––––

No, I cannot get help

I jump to my feet

Blood on my
