Have I truly
begun to fade
The beating
of my heart
another tick
of static
that bleeds
into the
background
Hush
Don't make
a sound
or I'll ruin
everything
I've screamed
so loud
that it once
cracked
my soul
And it hurt
It stung
in places
I thought
had been buried
so deep
so deep
I can feel
the stings again
Is that alarming
The bell's been
ringing
so loudly
that I can't
shut my eyes
My flowered
heart
has been
thirsty
and searching
for the smallest
quench
from you
from you
-March 2017
Oh! such yearning, may it gets quenched......
