Feel every emotion that is buried in my chest- Every agony that lies with me as I fall into unconsciousness and is my shadow when the sun looms overhead. The strings of my heart slyly ripple open and these words that my tongue has betrayed pour themselves into the ocean of the blood that is not my own.

Here I lie with my lies. I feel them as they caress my soul and leave me breathless. I ache for more but they disappear, leaving nothing but a suicide note behind. I’m on the edge of destruction. The sheets fall from the bed as every letter rises, leaving me vulnerable. I am still here in this place where my heart is bleeding and there is no panacea for this. I am stuck. I am here. I am alive.
