new_releases A Scream Inside

by Kiana McCrackin

Published in Issue No. 283 ~ December, 2020

I always want to begin again.

Again, begin.

I should have done things differently.

I should have.

 

I hide in the not-doing.

By not doing.

 

Another way to avoid should have is to live in the should. 

 

When I lay awake at night, mistakes pile on top of me like the fresh snow at my door when I refuse to open. 

Regret feels like throwing up.

I should have done things differently.

 

Another way to avoid should have is to live in the should. 

I want to begin, again.

Again, begin.

 

Sometimes, I am nothing at all and sometimes I am a scream inside a small barren room.
