Please, don’t scream at me
Not like that
It scares the hell out of me
Makes me freeze up
Makes me panic
Makes me want to run
Find a place to hide
So I can be alone
Nobody screaming at me
Please don’t scream at me
It makes me remember
Someone screamed like that before
I rewrote that memory
I know it was something bad
Now it’s just a blank space
It can’t hurt me again
What I never remember
Surely can’t hurt me
Bad memories stick more than good ones
So I make them blank
I don’t want to remember
But the screaming
It repaints the blank spaces
The bad memory threatens to return
Threatens to hurt me again
I have to rewrite it again
Make it nice and blank again
So it can’t hurt me again
But the screaming repaints it
And I have to keep rewriting it
So please listen to me when I say
Please don’t scream at me
Please…don’t…
