Chronic Silence

my brain is constipated

packed with remnants of indigestible thought processes

unable to regurgitate them into words

heart burning

sending fire through my esophagus

destroying the only passageway through which my screams can resonate

forcefully silencing me

stifling me

slaying me slowly

from the inside

out
