Poem -
in the way that i did
As I sit in my bed
Covering my mouth with the palms of my hands
So that I don’t disturb my family with my pain
With my suffering
I cry silently into my pillow
And cover the screams up with the shower
Into the sound of the running water
I hide so much pain from them
Because I know they wouldn’t understand
Even when they say that they would
Because they don’t know you
And they will never know you
In the way that I do
In the way that I did
