Trapped in my mind
With nothing to drown out the sound
But harsh angry music,
So loud I can't hear
Hear myself think.
Stuck, torn between fantasy
Fantasy and reality
Lies and truth
And I'm screaming
But I won't call for help.
Screaming in my mind
Where no one can hear me.
Quietly hurting
So know one knows.
Clenching my teeth
I won't say a word
Listening with my door cracked open
Hoping to decipher the conversation.
Is it my fault?
Whatever it was, whatever it is this time,
What did I do?
All the while
trapped, torn, screaming
In my mind.
Crying, shaking, sobbing
Quiet, calm face,
Trustworthy plaster facade.
Screaming so loud
But music drowns it out
Harsh angry lyrics
So you can't hear,
So you can't know,
So you can't care.
And no one has taken the hint
Overlooked, trapped, torn
Inside my mind.

I didn't intend to post twice in two days, but things are (adjective) up, as you can tell.  Sorry for bothering you guys, and sorry for it being so long.  Thanks for putting up with me

You can't hide from angry lyrics these days.  Where are the Beach Boys and Van Halen when you need them?(i'm an old metalhead )  This poem is great. thx for the post, and love the freestyle.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I loved this one.  Although it did not have much in the way of technicals and form, it carried a feeling I know all too well.  It reminded me of divorce.  Is this what you were attempting to discuss in this poem?
