Dream

My dream is to make the demons in my head disappear

So that I can go to bed without shedding a tear

But I fear

That I'll always shed a tear

Before I go to bed

Because all the demons in my head

Whisper in my ears

All of my fears

Making my tears fall down my face

Filling up all of the space

Making it hard to breathe and see

Screaming for help

I realize there's no sound coming out of me

Not even the slightest whimper or yelp

Nothing could be heard

It's as if my voice became a bird

That flew up into the sky

Without even saying goodbye

But at least it became a free bird soaring up in the sky

And not a broken girl who can only dream of flying up high

Into the sky

So I may change some of the wording later on to make it fit better or I might just leave it as it is. Um this was a school assignment and I wrote this for it so I hope when the teacher reads this that they don't send me to the counselor's office because how dark it is. Also yes I'm reusing words because I sometimes run out of ideas or I just find that those words go well with the poem. Kinda. Yup.

(Weird fact: I haven't slept on my bed so far this week.)
