LOUD
Shout
Scream
Screech
My music is blaring
it’s not enough
My door is shut
it’s not enough
It makes no sense
how so much noise
can mean so little.
Headphones in my ears
calculus, physics, English
it’s never enough
They tell me I’m loud
That I can Shout
Scream
Screech
They don’t know
What it means to be LOUD
I have to shout
I have to scream
I have to screech
I’ll wither away
I’ll lose myself
I’ll cease to exist
If I can’t be loud
They’re too LOUD
Hateful words
accusing
blaming
alienating
They say it’s love
but how can love be so LOUD?
I say it’s hate
despicable
condescending
HATE
There’s no room for me
in the LOUD
in the HATE
I will drown
I will drown, if I can’t
be loud
be angry
be cold
To save myself
I have to
Shout
Scream
Screech
