I Have Urges to Scream Into the Wind

I Have Urges to Scream Into the Wind

A Poem by Sharkapillar

I have urges to scream into the wind
Because it drowns it out so no one can hear
Just the birds, and the trees, and the sky
And I can scream and sing without fear

I don't want to have this conversation
I'm not saying I don't want to talk to you
I need to be freed from this birdcage
And fly straight up into the blue

I stand on mountaintops and stretch out my arms
And pretend I'm free falling from the clouds
And I fall for miles, for eternal lengths
But never do I touch firm ground...
...
...


I like to pretend that I can disappear
That with a snap of my fingers---I'm not here

I like to pretend that I'm not Aoelaigh
That a brand new dress will change me

I like to pretend I'm a skybound bird
Forever in the sky and I never heard your words

I like to pretend to be someone I'm not
But when I try to find the real me...
I forgot.
