Are You Screaming?

Are you screaming?

I can’t see your face
Every expression wiped off 
A blank slate

The open space 
Where your mouth should be
Saying something
But grown used 
To not being heard
Silenced

The missing eyes
Vacant
Blindly follow; don’t think; don’t feel
Endure

The arms hanging 
As if cuffed in your mind
Restrained by destinies
Beyond imagination

Red, green, black and blue
Vibrant colours
Dulled
Like your senses

I can feel you
Reach deep into my soul 
Formulate a response
I can’t express
