I run 

and I run, 

and I run, 

trying to get away from you

from your lies

& manipulation

But my mind stays

trapped inside

the cage of trauma 

you locked it in


I scream

and I scream, 

and I scream, 

trying to catch someone's attention

to tell them 

that I am not "fine"

& haven't been "fine"

But they don't listen

they stay inside

the bubble of purity

they put themselves in


I bleed, 

and I bleed, 

and I bleed, 

trying to feel

something other than fear

something other than you

& the pain that came with you

But you stay put

You stay in my mind

Infecting my thoughts

and memories


I cry, 

and I cry, 

and I cry, 

trying to push 

my sorrows down

into the depths 

& darkness of me

But

when I hear your name

when I see your face 

everything just
