Screaming Inside

It feels bad, this rotting nausea.
Going on with their lives,
Completely forgetting mine.
This isn't how it was supposed to be.


Round and round
Your world goes twirling
In the silence I can't take.
I'll be screaming on the inside.


On each everyday of mine
You are sourly missed.
You were once beside me,
And I had nothing to say.


So your world goes twirling,
Round and round
In the black silence within.
I'm screaming on the inside.


A noise, a click, a drop
Tick-tock, tick-a-tock
Endlessly wandering
Losing my, my, my--


Twirl around, my little world
The world that shouldn't exist
Twirl and twirl, round and round
Continuously until...

I scream.

Author's Note

I thought of it as a song, but not much of literal lyrics, so there's no melody composed for it.
