Lightning flashes inside my mind
sending volts of dangerous vibes
through the wires in my brain.
Each bolt is contaminated
with a poison that lives within me,
inserted in me, by him.
There is no reasoning, no compromise,
my voice gets drowned out
and these thoughts are overpowering.
They travel deep into every hidden crack
and explode with horrifying images
that torment my fearful soul.
Words echo as loud as thunder
as the storm reaches further
inside my poisonous heart.
My head clouds over with blackness
but I see a million colours teasing me
within the flashes of the bolts.
I feel so cold, like a polished rock
washed upon an abandoned shore.
And there is no one here
to calm the storm
that rages around me
and drowns me slowly
beneath its tormenting power.
