Scream within my Dream

3rd Place Poetic Traditions Contest 07/24

I lay this broken body down,
To sigh a final sigh,
I'm tired and my body aches,
To say a last goodbye.
If I call but no one comes.
If all my hopes are lost,
If lying inside emptiness,
If left to bear the cost,
I'll scream within my dream,
Let fly a fierce outcry,
Cling to my everything,
Try to wonder why,
I'll scream within my dream,
And if there's no one to hear,
I'll take a fateful look around,
Then scream within my dream.
