The Distant Scream
Somewhere nearby I heard a distant scream.
Though there was nothing, I wanted to flee,
Vaguely reminding me of a foreboding dream.
One that robbed me of all my esteem,
It left me saying a silent plea.
Somewhere nearby I heard a distant scream.
Part of me is broken, something I can’t redeem.
Searching the sound’s source I couldn’t see,
Vaguely reminding me of a foreboding dream.
In which I’m victim of my own scheme,
Torturing myself to the severest degree.
Somewhere nearby I heard a distant scream.
The anxiety is ripping at my sanity’s seam,
That possibly I’ve lost a crucial key.
Vaguely reminding me of a foreboding dream.
Then it came, a realization too extreme,
This cry could be coming from me.
Somewhere nearby I heard a distant scream,
Vaguely reminding me of a foreboding dream.
