A Scream From Within


A scream for within

Quiets the present numbness

Sick of the loneliness

A scream from within

Dissolves the current silence

Fatigued from its presence

A scream from within

Drowns out the emptiness

Hating being void of happiness

A scream from within

Steals away the outsider feeling

Tired of not living

A scream form within

Chases the deadness out

In need to shout

A scream from within

Sets the soul ablaze

Letting go of the sad faze

A scream from within

Brings the body to life

Happy to no longer need a knife

A scream from within

Keeps the mind sane

Optimistic about a new desired plane

A scream from within

Adrenalizes the mental system

Pumped from soaring a distance

A scream from within

Defends the soul

Pleased to be coming home

A scream from within

Is the perfect thing.
