i feel like screaming

loud.
letting sound rip through my chest.
rip through my soul.

hearts accelerating
head turning,
twirling.
catching glimpses of mid summer nights and pre-thunderstorm dreams.

lungs burning,
bursting.
under cool midnight air.
ears ringing
like the song of a thousand mocking birds.

escape.
release.
a runaway.

collapse.

i feel like screaming.
