silence surrenders
a maelstrom
truth’s deformity
all screams turn to glass
the bottom
of a shattered life
and every word tastes
like cat piss
swallowed greedily

I love the initial emotional impact the poem had on me… I won’t pretend I can say I “understand” it or would still like it if I did… but there is something about the way you wrote it that I really like.
