Poem -

overwhelmed

The constant screaming and constant talking 
It all begins to get too much
My ears are over heard
My neck begins to burn

I want to rip out my voical cords right out my thoart
I wish to rip open my neck to plung my airway cords 
Pluck and play them till their no more

I wish to tear my arm open to watch as I become a volcano
To watch myself gush with mass red dye
I’ll watch myself suffer as if my body isn’t even mine

Oh for it not to be mine, too much chest too much thigh
I want to rip out my stomach, I’m not pretty do not dare to lie
I wish to rip out my hair to make my skull burn

Burn burn burn 
Till I’m no more
I’m overwhelmed, over stimulated 
This is too much

When is it enough?
Enough, I’ve had enough
The constant screaming and constant talking
It all is way too much.

Hello SEA!!....this, although it is quite bizarre and VERY gory, has a soft underbelly....where the poet shines through with phrasing that creates imagery that is hard to forget....it sears those images into the minds eye ~

                               ~ "I wish to tear my arm open
                                   to watch as I become a volcano,
                                   to watch myself gush
                                   with mass red dye....."

I know this comes from a place quite dark....but it has a melancholy and that is undeniably crafted by a talented writer!!......I do so hope that writing this helped a bit with your stress!!......I know writing always helps me in times of stress.....ALL STARS!!.....well done dear poet sister!!......LOVE ROCKETS!!.....T xo
