I want to throw my head back and howl
Like an animal.
I want my scream to shrilly ring out
Like the keening wail of the banshee.
I want all to hear my mighty bellow
Like a Klingon funeral cry.
The physical pain
The mental anger
The emotional anguish
Let the scream release it all
In a savage torrent of emotion
Drowning those who caused my suffering.
… except, I can’t.
If I scream, I might hurt my throat.
Or everyone might think I’ve gone crazy.
And my voice is so high-pitched, they might just laugh.
The impotency of it all…
… it’s enough to make you want to scream.

I've been battling major feelings of frustration lately, and like any good poet, suffering equals inspiration!

 It reminds me of myself, in a way. The want to scream, but inability, making you want it all the more; an endless loop.
I'm not a good critique, but I do get the frustrated feeling from it, and the last part really pushed out the emotion in a silent, yet strong way. Good job.  -- "Dont be foolish, you foolish fool wearing the foolishly foolish clothes." - Franziska Von Karma. I do Requests and Art Trades.  Thank you... I really wanted to emphasize the constant loop, and I'm glad the feeling of muted frustration came across.

So many thanks to you  -- Up on the mountain, as the blizzards closed in, there was a red glow in the snow. It was there all winter, and when the spring gales blew, the rubies glittered in the sunshine. No one remembers the singer. The song remains. -The Last Hero Ahahaha! Awww you're quite welcome ne. I like it when the people I watch do something really meaningful once in a while. ^_^
You're a good writer ne; keep up the good work and I'll keep reading what you have to say.  -- "Dont be foolish, you foolish fool wearing the foolishly foolish clothes." - Franziska Von Karma. I do Requests and Art Trades. ... call me crazy, but you seem to have sprinkled the syllable "ne" several times into that post. What's that about?
 -- No one remembers the singer. The song remains. -The Last Hero Oh my, you've noticed~ It's just a habit of mine.^_^
Sorry if it bothers you ne! Just tell me to stop if it really bugs you, mkay? >_< -- "Dont be foolish, you foolish fool wearing the foolishly foolish clothes." - Franziska Von Karma. I do Requests and Art Trades. Eh, could be worse. You could be one of those wannabe-Japanese twits who tacks on "desu" at the end of every sentance. But obviously, you're not
 -- No one remembers the singer. The song remains. -The Last Hero Hahaha! Oh, I once went through a phase where I said 'kawaii' a lot.. buuuuut I realized how retarded I sounded and stopped before people got angry.
 I'm not a twit; I'm a collector ne. : D -- "Dont be foolish, you foolish fool wearing the foolishly foolish clothes." - Franziska Von Karma. I do Requests and Art Trades. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
