Screams From Within Poem by Scarlet .....

locked in a cage
do you hear my screams
are they loud enough
are you even listening
I need you here to help me
but you don’t know how to listen
how to let me make my own decision
your words circling in my head
all your insults
all your curse
make me feel like i am not a person
I feel like I am nothing
this screaming gets you no where
I try to fight off your words
or at least control them
echoing in my cage
this cage is my body
your words the assaults
I struggle to withstand
my thoughts eating away
at my sanity from within
slowly I start to fade away
lost in the darkness of my cage
