Quiet
February 18, 2015
In the back of my mind I could hear
my mother’s stern voice telling me to
walk away, but I’ve always had trouble
listening to the voices in my head.
I walked towards what I believed was the
light, but all you were was darkness and I
could feel you in the cracks of my skin,
begging me to let you in. I can still feel
you in the silence of the night, when all
is quiet but no one can hear me screaming.

This piece is actually really short, I liked the way I composed it. I didn't want to add anything and I think I like it. This poem will also be in the book I am hoping to publish before 2016.
