Poetry by Samantha Terrell: Fever Dreams

Fever Dreams

Are a slow fade,
Silent scream.
The lungs
Left empty,
The mind numb. 

Calling out as
Only silence can,
Words are formed, unformed; said, 
Unsaid; released, 
Withheld.

Tasked with 
Withholding a tangent,
A dream doesn't know it asks
Too much. 
It won't hold back.

We wake
To find the broken fever
Didnt' take.
