WHispers in the dArK

by chritty - Aries


those whispers in the dark
calling out to my decaying heart
reaching for that lost love
that small amount of dignity and strength
holding on for dear life
clinging to the outside
of the rottening flesh
controlling what’s left
speaking to the inner depths
screaming to be heard
in a voice barely over a whisper
trying to yell but being forced back down
scratching to get out
burning to be free
breathing to stay alive
but fighting to breath
eager to break free
to be set loose
pecking at the cage
getting ready to fly away
fly to freedom one more time

Reason for writing:

    going out on your own, recovering from a breakup or whatever :)
