Feeling Safe

 Do you feel safe

Safe in your home

Yeah, sure, I feel safe

I’m not talking about physical safety

Then what do you mean 

Safety from words

The ones that can hurt

Ones that stay and penetrate deeply


Actions that scream silently

Invisible objects flying towards you

So many things that are unseen

No marks to show 

Marks tell the truth

Show the pain

That runs deep within my veins 

Invisibility remains

False safety stays and play 


Words are daggers piercing my skin

Yet I still pretend I am safe

People around me scream my name

Trying to pull me down further

Flinching in a reality that is in my head

Hoping something real comes along

An escape from the false perception 

That is all around me

Am I safe

I don’t know

Maybe answer it for me

I am lost in world

That has haunted me
