Clearing My Throat Poem by Adens Kamwi

Clearing My Throat



2 a.m and im still awake writing this note

if i get it all down then its out of my throat

no longer choking me or threatening my sanity

a release from a silent calamity

a remedy to my need to vent

evidence as permanent as cement

screaming lasts but a few seconds

talking helps but a few minutes

when i scramble my thoughts down on ink

then and only then can i freely think

of all thats been boiling up inside

of thoughts and feelings that collide

to form a rock a heavy burden

thats big enough to write a sermon

so this note, this note is not a note

this is me clearing my throat
