words
some days my savior
some days my hell
dissolve into
fragmented
syllables and
lonely letters
that I cannot
reassemble back
into meaningful
wholes
I tell myself
I will grow accustomed
to this silence
these padded walls

A padded cell would be total hell….where I am sure I would be thankful for the scripture for a day such as that could be.

In this case, the padded cell is more metaphoric. Again, this was inspired by my struggles with communication.
