my cheeks burn from endless tears
my eyes soak with a victims liquid
my face aches after such contortions
i scream
i scream until my neck goes numb
i scream until my throat is torn apart
i scream until their ears bleed
please hear me
don't ignore my cries
listen to my suffering
please
this pain is ongoing
get rid of it
i am begging you
but all of my piercing screams go unheard
the urge to cut open my voice box
grows harder to control
i await the day i cannot speak
everything is killing me
god stop it
i'm tearing out my hair
i'm ripping off my nails
i'm gouging out my eyes
make it stop
make it stop please
please
i can't stop screaming
i need my ancestors to hear me
from their graves
i need my children to hear me
from their future
i need my ears to hear me
from their dying host
get me away from this hell
i crave a bullet hole between my eyes
god get me out
end me
i'm screaming
don't you hear me
i'm screaming until i vomit my lungs
i hope i scream enough for my body
to give out and
die
