I don’t want it to keep coming near,
I want to be finally freed from my pain,
From those feelings that drove me insane.

I cover my ears up so I can hear no more,
I have begun putting bolts on my door,
But they still bang & kick no matter what I do,
I just hope & pray that they never do get through.

I have tried to block these terrifying sounds,
Because no longer do I want them around
They have scarred my fragile mind,
Kept me held prisoner, kept me in a bind.

I once thought suicide was the only way out,
That was when nobody could hear my shouts,
I think now that my voice can be heard,
It now sounds like a little, baby bird.

It tries to drown out my voice with its screams,
It beat me for while as I had no-one on my team,
Now I can see a speckle of light,
I keep it in my dreams & hold onto it tight.

Death Screams

Death forever screams into my ear,
I don’t want it to keep coming near,
I want to be finally freed from my pain,
From those feelings that drove me insane.

I cover my ears up so I can hear no more,
I have begun putting bolts on my door,
But they still bang & kick no matter what I do,
I just hope & pray that they never do get through.

I have tried to block these terrifying sounds,
Because no longer do I want them around
They have scarred my fragile mind,
Kept me held prisoner, kept me in a bind.

I once thought suicide was the only way out,
That was when nobody could hear my shouts,
I think now that my voice can be heard,
It now sounds like a little, baby bird.

It tries to drown out my voice with its screams,
It beat me for while as I had no-one on my team,
Now I can see a speckle of light,
I keep it in my dreams & hold onto it tight.

Hmn. I'm hoping that this is more than a little poetic license, pix, 'cos this sounds pretty scary to me.

"But they still bang & kick no matter what I do,"

Hoping your speckle shines someday like the sun, I am
