Anger seeps through my body
raising a whirlwind of questions
disturbing my soul
The wounds seem to tear apart
burning like coal
Ashes left untouched
this soul left to burn alive
The air seems to succumb
making it harder to breathe inside
Wanting to let go
but the fire holds me back
Inching about in my skin
Scars that reveal pain
burn away
to become bigger wounds
and reminding me of what it shouldn't
Letting me suffer
and never letting me die
Holding me back
to torture me inside.
