Ask Me
February 9, 2013
A smile, a laugh, a joke.
A mask, a façade, an invisible mask.
Ask me how I feel.
Ask me am I getting over it
Hear me in the middle of the night screaming for the salvation that I need
Listen to my desperate cries to have back my sanity
A soul, a heart, hope.
A shard, a fire, a scream.
Let me tell you I’m not okay.
Let me tell you I’m not getting over it.
Close your ears to the heartless convictions of hate.
Hear my sanity escape me once more.
