The Inward Scream
Who am I
What have you done
Screamed I hysterically to the me of you
I am
We are undone
What will become of us
Me I and you
My life in disarray since
That eventful day in May
When that hidden part of me deep and far away
Suddenly ransacked
Wrenched apart
The pain of long ago
Thought to be expunged eradicated forever
Still silently waiting
Unbeknownst to I We
But not to you nor those around
Violently exposed
Roaring back triumphantly
Unrestrained arrogance without bounds
The grim reaper smiling smugly
Hissing sarcastically
Have you missed me
Knowing full well the pain never really gone
A long holiday
Hiatus if you will
Simply waiting pacing
To once more rack my life asunder
When least expected
Those around impacted most
As you waited silently with barely bated breath
For memories foolishly banned forever
To surface once again
Time never my friend
