Sometimes you scream in pain and every now and then, I scream for sanity.

I screamed

S-C-R-E-A-M!

Sometimes I want to scream,

Loud and high, long and

With great resonance so everyone

Can feel my annoyance.

 

I pull in air from all around,

Close my eyes…

Collapse to my knees…

And with one force in

My diaphragm and my larynx in accord.

 

I SCREAM in a SHRILL, beautiful,

Cathartic way.

 

Until I have no breath;

Until I am placid.

Until I can scream nor feel

Anymore.

    I have felt that way!! We have completely different writing styles, and yet I totally can feel how you feel! Nice work! I like it!
