[Poem] Rest and Scream

Rest and Scream
Poem #242
Written 11.1.10



I need to rest, I have to sleep!
But I need to talk, and even scream!
Am I sinking? The sea looks too deep,
Are things as bad as they seem?

Where am I heading, I can’t see,
I’m blindfolded, am I being killed?
But even if my body seizes to be,
My soul is alive, not to be killed…

But I want to be left in peace, alone,
Can I run away from this all?
I want to rest silently on my own,
I’m not a coward, but I’m not whole…
