Scream they say.
Scream until the windows shatter and people walking their dogs hear the echo.
Until the 4 walls keeping you together have broken down about a dozen times but they keep building up and up and up.
Scream they say.
Scream until the people who cared leave you to rot. Scream until you manage to scream up a lung and dont stop. Dont stop. Dont stop screaming they said.
Dont stop even after you've screamed away the ears of little children. Dont stop until you live the same situation in every dream through a lifetime. Scream they had said to me. They had said it would fix who i turned into.
they said it would help me grow a heart chamber, or two. Scream until you forget your given name. Until the only thing you know is your own scream.
Scream they said.
