How do I Tell People



#Photo from teahub.io

 How do I tell people, 

That on the day, I left the door locked behind me 

By the bang at the door, I knew I was alone

In a vortex 

With no strength 

And not a working mind

I was imprisoned

By the tenderness of heart

Yet my captor showed no mercy

How do I tell people!!


How do I tell people

That their letters did not reach me

Torn with malice

And that my phone was broken in half

No one could reach me

I was fed by one

A gospel that filled me with hatred

Anger

How do I tell people 

I couldn't  reach you!!


How do I tell people

That my swollen face was fist across my face

And that I was afraid to ignite his anger

That I fought to be in his good side

In everybody's good side

Everyday sinking into the mud

How do I tell people!!


How do I tell people 

That I had to break the walls 

And that walking alone was not easy

That my bruised head is not my fault

My knees are bleeding from crawling

How, do I tell people that 

My eyes are veiled by darkness

That sometimes I cannot see the distant

That is why I keep circling

It is dark

How do I tell people that!!!
