The Same Disease Poem by Terri Turrell

The Same Disease

Rating: 2.8


The breaking point
when words fail to express
A vice clamp bearing down upon your chest
A tender touch that turns into a fist

The razor cut
a line drawn
on your wrist

Do screams reverberate inside your head?
When only silence answers, are you dead?
The blackest days I've known
are times like these

We suffer one and all
the same disease

We do Terri, this is what unifies us. These words sure didn't fail to express, keep doing it and we do eventually put the brakes on this muse, perseverance is the key to unlocking our agony. smiling at you Tai
