My Scream

This scream

Held in so long

It scares me

The strength it has

Built up

has been Growing

A lifetime

from being hidden

Strong enough to

Travel across oceans

Causing storms to rage

Upsetting the balance

That the seas depend on

Even the most ferocious

are terrified

This scream of pure fury

Created by the humiliation

Of atrocities inflicted upon it

The keeper of betrayals

And shame

fear resides here

The scream can only escape

In my dreams

Where it can safely tear

Through my being

Pulverizing everything in its path

Turning into itself

Shredding every remnant

Of my soul

The tears it causes

The wails it create

Echo through eternity
