I’m sick so I wrote a poem thing. Happy Valentine's Day to those of you who aren't sick! —————————————————— Draft: 1 Writing time: 20 min. Tone: Melancholic Inspiration: Writing Prompt - silence Parallels: The Archer (Taylor Swift), Liability (Lorde), Falling (Harry Styles) .......................................................... The silence inside of her is louder Than any scream she ever swallowed “So polite, so gentle” If only she was that way With herself Never complaining, never asking “why?” Not because she’s kind, not because she’s proud But because she’s afraid So she’s silent, pushing for something greater than this But what is there but this? Her silence is her shield But also her prison It builds walls, tactfully keeping her from harm Until it suffocates her Leaving her gasping for breath In a place where there is none As if the words she needs to say Are too loud Too bold Too dangerous And now she’s forgotten how to use her voice But she is not silent No, her silence is her scream Her cry for help, a breathless, noiseless wail Because she’s trapped beneath her walls The ones she built so high to keep her safe She’s trapped, trying to remember how to keep going How to breathe And now, she doesn’t know the difference Between staying safe and giving up
