My Voice is Empty Trying to Screammm


My Voice is Empty Trying to Screammm I want to screammm my voice is empty I hate being this way you’ve taken my speech You bully me to the point of no return I’m not sure how much more I can take I want to run away and give my ears a break I can’t pick myself up from the ground You keep spinning my head around and around I’ve heard you calling me so many horrible frightful words I want to screammm my voice is empty From the top of a mountain Where others can hear me But, no one can see me I feel so alone, so terribly alone, I’m gone So tired and scared, how much more can I bare I hate being this way, I don’t want to stay You’re destroying my life, all I have left is to pray I want to screammm my voice is empty The tears just won’t stop My heart fell out of my chest and dropped The pain is too deep I never get a chance to peacefully sleep I’m worried all the time of the tomorrows And, what you’ll do to me if I show my sorrows I want to screammm my voice is empty You bully me by the words and fists you toss my way Leave me alone and stop the tortured words you say From the top of a mountain Where others can hear me But, no one can see me From the top of a mountain I want to screammm my voice is empty My Voice is Empty Trying to Screammm Written and Copyrights By: Deanna M.
