Scream

One day I woke up from sleep
And you were not beside me.                             
I looked for you around the house,       
Called you name but got back none.

Could see undone dishes from the last night                                                                   
Stilettos and broken bottles still beneath the bed                                                                  
 But you were gone.                                                   
Your soothing aroma was still fresh               
Yet your absence baffled me.

Suddenly I found myself in this pit of Hell,       
I lay there, being tormented                            
Hoping someone, if not you, would ring the bell 
And make the pit illuminated.

I screamed for company                            
  But all of them go through my scars.         
  How can no one hear me?                              
 Locked in this concrete cage, looking for help                                                                      
 Can no one hear me?                                 
  For so long I’ve been screaming.

I try so hard to get you to see                       
 But I keep on bleeding,                            
 Thinking it will never be.

Get me out of this pit                                     
It’s dark and cold                                        
 And I need company a bit.                               
  I’m getting exhausted, it’s getting cold          
 Hear my cry, loud and shredding                  
  Listen very closely                                         
  It’s hard to hear while dreaming,                 
  Just like a red herring                                       
 So try and get comfortable and cozy             
 Can you hear me screaming?
