I can't scream in my own house
I live alone
But I cannot scream
I try and only static comes out
A muted whisper of emotion
I can't let out my feelings
My frustrations
My pain
I can't but I try
And it keeps being static
Because I'm not supposed to scream
I'm supposed to be good
Not make things more difficult
Isn't that what I was taught?
Isn't that how I was raised?
What if you disturb the neighbors?
What if you disturb the cat?
What if you disturb your brother, 1000 miles away?
You are so good
You are so perfect
Be a good example
Be a good example?
Do not make mistakes
Are mistakes not an example too?
It is not proper to scream and yell and cuss in anger
We have to be good
You have to be good
You have to be perfect
Don't let the ceramic crack
Don't let the smile drop
Don't let them know what's underneath
What you really think
That you feel
And hurt
And writhe
And now I can't scream in my own house
