Angry words
Simmer in my brain
Nothing I can call my own
Screwed up
Screwed over
My pain is not permitted
But I hide and take some time
To bleed to weep
To have it interrupted
My time is not my own
My space is not my own
My soul is not my own
I long to scream
To spew the hate in my head
But the air I breathe
And use to speak
Is not my own
