Keep The Silence
My eyes grasp for air
Inhaling and exhaling
My eyes need air
This time i made sure pain was there
You run it fast and jagged
I close my eyes and breathe
My hand tightens
I write on my arm: silence
So jagged so fast
Goose-bumps run through my body
My heart beats uncontrollably
MY eyes grasp for air once again
I start to shake
I swallow hard
My throat is dry
The blood drips fiercely everywhere
My eyes can't take it any longer
Tears form and water cascades from my eyes
The room is every so quiet
Silence
That word tickles my arm
SIlence.
I giggle.
My arm is in so much pain
Yes.
I enjoy the pain
I get a thrill from it
Why couldn't they be quiet?
Why did they have to keep talking?
All i wanted was silence.
And soon i will have it
I will have no talking
quietness
I laid on the floor
My arm still on fire
I close my eyes
I inhale and never exhale
I smiled
Complete silence.
