Silent cries

Giving Voice to My Unconscious Self

My instincts scream

But they have no voice

I fear judgment

In expressing my feelings

The faith I have in my sixth sense

And in the seventh and eighth too

If I translate my pains

Fears and muscle tension

As my unconscious sending

Cries for help

Like someone who can no longer bear

To scream and scream

But no one hears

Maybe I can

Find a place

Where I feel safe

And can finally rest

About the Creator

Paola Crocomo

Currently on my postdoc, I've been studying Chemistry over 13 years, but the only thing that kept me going was journaling my feelings, writing poems and drawing on my notebooks. Now, I finally decide to share a bit here. Hope you enjoy :)
