Let Me Cry
Let me cry,
 please let me
 sob.
 Let the shivers
 run up my
 spine,
 as I try
 to resolve.
 What's
 going on
 in this little
 old house?
 Why am I locked
 in a cage? And
 why am I not
 yet out?
 Let me cry
 by myself,
 for I'll drown
 others that
 come near.
 Just let me
 curl up
 into a ball,
 let me out
 of here.
 My lip
 quivers,
 my tongue
 stuck to my teeth.
 I wish people could
 see, what's
 underneath.
 This is just
 a teen angst,
 they'll probably
 say. But when
 I'm gone,
 when there's
 rot and decay,
 maybe they'll listen,
 as I muffle my screams.
 Maybe they'll hear me
 for once,
 rather than letting
 me be.
 Let me cry,
 Oh darling,
 let me cry.
 [Maybe then I'll be fine.]
