Bullying (inspired by limbo)

Breathing hard
and the monsters surrounding me
Scream for help
but the pain is silencing me
Thump Thump Thump
is the sound of my heart beating

Hope
Hope is dying
Cry
Cry like me
Weep

Alice Bellan

 


Weep like me
Sob
Sob like me

And the pain is all over me
tears sliding down my cheeks
No! No! No!
Are the shrieks being torn from me

The pain is gone
but I’m still feeling so empty
They have no kindness
and no integrity

Head hung low
and fear envelops me
I cry out
and their words are stabbing me

Hope
Hope is dying
Cry
Cry like me
Weep
Weep like me
Sob
Sob like me

I fall down
and the hope is ripped from me
Eyes are closed
And the silence I see

I wish for death
And the angels are whispering
Up
Up
Up
into the worlds of dreams
Peace and love!
and the angels are saving me!
