Mind

My mind keeps taking me back to the days,

The day of my suffering,

The days of my pain,

I hear a word and the memories start coming,

“Stop”,

“Leave me alone”,

I hear myself screaming,

But I can’t let it out,

So I guess I’m just screaming on the inside,

Silent on the outside,

I can’t take this anymore,

There is a little girl scream in my head,

“It’s ok”,

But that little girl is naive,

She have not seen what I’ve see,

The shooting,

The fires,

All those people dieing,

The anti semitism,

The lying,

Why is everyone dying,

I ask myself,

Even though I know the answer,

The little girl naive,

The little girl is optimistic,

The little girl is me,

Screaming at myself,

To stop living in the past,

To break us both out of this prison,

So we can be free,

So I can live my life,

And so can she.

This is very touching sara
Your inner scream shouts leave me alone
So wasn't sure if comment would be welcome or not
If pain is but a memory
You have come far
I doubt you will ever forget the horrors witnessed
You and the not so naive child will come through it
Keep writing
Brave and talented
