No More
No!!
No….
I no longer wish to hear
Your whispers are toxic
Just like acid on skin
Burning the logic from me
Quiet!!
Be quiet…
I have had enough
Listening has brought me pain
Sneering laughter
Bitter twisted words
Silence!!
Give me silence…
And all I hear
Is my own heartbeat
The very breath from my lips
Me holding on to sanity
No….

Your whispers are toxic
Just like acid on skin
Burning the logic from me
Quiet!!
Be quiet…
I have had enough
Listening has brought me pain
Sneering laughter
Bitter twisted words
Silence!!
Give me silence…
And all I hear
Is my own heartbeat
The very breath from my lips
Me holding on to sanity

One breath at a time, AP. One breath at a time is all we have sometimes.
This is a very intense poem of determination and survival.

There have been times when that’s all I had was breath, somehow I’ve survived. Trust me I didn’t want to, but I’m still here so those built in instincts must be strong

Sometimes, silence is the circuit breaker to enable us to catch our breath; and move forward.

If I’m deep, it’s on a subconscious level. Was listening to a Peter Gabriel song Walk Through The Fire , from the opening of untitled page on iPad to submitting this here took 13 mins and this why when I say I write raw this how it comes out and probably why I will never be a poet in the real sense of the word

We're all the same; seeking shelter from the noise inside or outside our own heads. Or both.
And Ahavati is right. Being your genuine self is quite healthy for you and everyone around you.
