I scream into the midnight void all day

Deafening the ornate pots of clay

Glittering silver intertwined with a majestic indigo

Subdued under cotton tapestry woven of rainbow


(Stop!

You are not a moronic sheep and I am not your fodder

I was brought here to simply bear misty roses and water)


I scream into the ivory chasm all dawn

Deafening the ornate pots forlorn

Sullen cyan speckled on surly white

Behind snowflakes falling in clear sight


(Stop;

Your melancholic cries are none of my concern

The crystals droplets in my vessel are the only tears I will discern)


I scream into the pink abyss all dusk

Deafening the ornate pots of dust

Green vines wrapped around strokes of amaranth

Still in front of silk curtains blowing sand


(Stop.

Your twists of anger are not mine and never will be

I stay empty listening to woodwinds in glee)


Stop! Stop; Stop.

That is all I hear through the night

I still scream, scream, scream of my plight


But ocean waves keep lapping up my misery

Snow crystals mistake me as a trickery

And thorns prickle my tragedy


What came of my screams again?

Rejection mixed with even more pain?


So, I will carry my screams somewhere else

So, you can enjoy your silence while I walk my dismal echoes with me
