How do you silence a screaming heart

I wear a crimson scar
embroidered every place you touched
no place on me not bleeding
covered now in lovers blood
I run to hide in darkness
mask myself from any light
but it seems that I am frozen
fettered in emotional cuts
injuries yet fresh, some healed
exposed alone I stand
searching and left to wonder
how do you silence a screaming heart

I wish I knew for I would surely give it my all.....sometimes it seems that even time will not silence all of the madness inside that a departed lover has left us with.
Enjoyed this one....can relate totally.

You've taken the most important step by sharing true feelings.  Intensity of pain was vividly described in your writing.   Rae
