Screaming
Yet, I am silent
My lips are moving,
But no sound escapes
Ripping out my hair
Pulling at my clothes
The years are passing
I am growing older
I feel like a child
Trapped in this failing body
My heart continues to beat
Longing for music
My body is tired
My ribs hold my soul prisoner
My lungs expand with pain
Everyday is just another day
My words are lost,
But no one really cares
The masks are falling
I cannot put them back on
Grasping at air
This must be my end,
But I am still here
Screaming,
But no one can hear me
