Paranoid Heart

7 1 1
                                    

In a silent room

Full of strangers 

My heart beats fast

Too fast

Too loud

Too much for my weak body

I silently scolded my heart

 To stop its frantic beating

Filled with my dark truths

Stop pouring out my ugly secrets

Stop telling them my dirty deeds

Stop showing them my paranoia

Stop demonstrating my insanity 

Stop

Stop stop stop

Stopstopstopstop 

STOPSTOPSTOPSTOPSTOP





The heart stopped beating at 0000hr.

Known as the witching hour.

Her favorite hour.
