That Fear

As screams become murmur, still narrating the worries

Not asking for forgiveness, but urges the heart to indulge in melancholic drama

Slavish screams transform when the depths want to berate them

Kneading the soul into submission while narrating a false tale

Where weaknesses may not have been, they become deeply entrenched

There’s fear of abandoning the screams as uncomfortable silence clouds the eyes
