screaming in silence (Free verse) by siyado
tedious morn on wasted limbs
pass the empty hours of nothing
sworn to live mine by these high machines
yet a decade and a catalytic thought behind
screaming in silence
so no one hears
screaming in silence
and bleeding dry tears
tired eyes in circles sweep
the spaces of a burgeoning psychosis
must in every passing moment see
only the darker side of things
screaming in silence
so no one hears
screaming in silence
and braving the fears
keep on diseased and strayed
contemplate possible destinations-
above the dreamful skies, in tedious rooms
within the self, upon the grave
screaming in silence
so no one hears
screaming in silence
lend me your ears

If your answer is the first one, how do you know the sound you're not producing is a scream? What if it's more like, say, a moan - or a pleasant sustained middle A sharp?
Or what if you're just holding your mouth really wide and slowly exhaling while people passing on the street wonder what the heck you're doing?
