Solecism haunts me

So I do not speak

I marinade in an ocean of melancholy

Swimming until I drown 

Until only silence remains

Dancing alone in a dimly lit room

Scream

Don't bite your tongue

It'll only make you bleed

Let it pour out of you like rain from a stormy cloud

Speak until you lose all notion of sound

Write until your fingers shake with agony

Listen until you cannot tolerate the painfully melodic tune of the universe one more second

Can the forest hear my screams over the buzzing sound of life

Has the sea opened its ears to my cries

Will the moon look down on my hysterical being in pity

Do I even make a sound

Or am I simply background noise

Can you hear it

My plea

For reprieve
