Silent Screaming

Mind racing

breath slashing

heart beating

blades flashing.

Whispered secrets

echoed thoughts

silvered moonlight

crimes not caught.

Essence shaking

unsure feelings

make up your mind

time's reeling.

Sliced skin

labored breathing

cold sweat

silent screaming.

She was gone

soul vanished

eyes closed

task managed.

Shattered glass

darkest night

clocks ticking

nothing's right.

Small hushes

dusk to day

scars fading

nightmares stay...

and silent screaming

still keeps me awake.
