It took every last breath I had to scream those last few words.
My heart pounds.
My head stings so numb.
I curl into a bowl that once felt safe.
But that was a lifetime ago.
I cry to myself in a raspy voice
The walls too thick for my desperation to be heard
A foggy mirror
My knees cold against the floor
I dont like you
who are you
why cant you just be
getting tired
running on fear
so lost
like so many times before
never as empty
never as broken
as now
in comes
more
and more
Pain
