The questions that ring in my mind.

The questions that scream in my mind.

The questions that hiss in my mind.

The questions that sing in my mind.

The questions the questions the questions-

“STOP!”

I scream out.

For a single second, everything is clear.

For a single second, I can finally breathe.

For a single second, my mind is my own.

For a second a second a second-

“WE’RE BACK!”

They scream out.

And I’m lost, without answers.

And I’m lost, without hope.

And I’m lost I’m lost I’m lost-

“GO AWAY!”

I scream out.

They are quiet.

They are they are they are-

“NEVER!”

They scream out.

Loud loud loud-
