Scream

Date: 6/14/18

"Scream,

Scream it all out right now,

Before it's too late and you begin to shut down,

You feel like you're on the edge,

Ready, prompt and prepared.

But darling, look at me,

Please let yourself be spared.

You feel like you're doing your best,

But no one's impressed,

Stuck in this cycle of malicious intent.

It's about time you put to rest all of the things you've suggested.

No more thoughts of death or being so damn desperate.

You're not destined,

To be alone forever.

It was all those thoughts that kept you under the weather.

Toss them out before it's too late,

You only have so much time to get out of this terrible interstate.

Two day, three day, then a month,

Before you know it, you're as good as gone.

You feel completed dilapidated,

Stuck with nothing but laden hatred.

You blame your past mistakes,

But none of that really mattered anyways.

It was the regrets that held you down,

The pain of being lost, buried in the ground.

It was not the mistakes you've made,

But the problems that you faced,

Mistakes were only the sprinkle to the multi-layered cake.

Scream it out right now, I dare you.

Let all your problems wave by.

It's about time you learned to let these things go.

Issues just ain't your type!

You smile as if you've never experienced heartache.

Even after the ones that you thought loved you were gone on some mystery highway.

No return, but to you that was okay.

But you had to lie to yourself repeatingly to feel that way, so it ain't okay!

In reality, your head is almost screwed off your neck,

You feel like no one loves you,

Like you're worth as much as an unsigned check.

This shit is just getting too complicated.

You can't even process the way you're truly feelin',

For years you couldn't even realize how far you've fallen,

Until you start wanting to start the path to recovering.

So no!

You ain't okay, no matter how many times you say.

I may be blind,

But I can still see your misery.

So please, I'm begging on my knees,

Tell someone before your emotions drive you insane.

Scream it out right now, I dare you.

Let all your problems wave by,

It's about time you learned to let these things go.

Issues just ain't your type!

Issues, just ain't your type."
