I have an unrelenting fear
That I'm wasting every minute, every hour that I'm living here
I won't ask for sympathy
Just understand I can't change that part of me
I'm scared to admit it, so I act like I don't give a shit
Constantly hiding behind a masquerade
I’m starting to get sick of being like this
Trapped in ignorant bliss
The very fabric of my being
Is fucking torn
You know,
I have this unrelenting fear
That I'm fighting the days, but I'm losing the years
A knife on my bed, a noose with my name
I keep calling it pain
The comfort it brings me is truly just shame

eternal
Her cold hands delicately run across my spine, tracing each vertebrae carefully
Making a mental image of my back using the ends of her claws
With caution, she uses her razor-sharp nails to find each muscle as she tours my body
I can feel her legs wrapped around me tightening, her nails digging deeper.
Please
Don’t let go.
Please
It hurts but I won't let go
Please
Let this pain be a memory I can't let go of

prisoner
How much it pains me to not feel certain emotions correctly will forever be incomprehensible to me.
My longing for true feelings, connection, love, communication resonates so immensely within me that I cannot do anything but freeze and try to understand myself
I've failed every single time
No matter how much I try,
I don't understand why I refuse to feel
Does it scare me?
How funny of me, to be hurt by something I can't describe
What purpose does this wall of false callousness serve?
All it does is force me to be alone and stubborn
How much am I missing out on?
I wish to fade while feeling everything I can't,
Wish to feel everything beautiful, painful and sad,
To feel real and alive
How curious of me, to long for a feeling I've never had

repentance
I have, for most of my life, been a fool both to myself and other people
By letting things happen, thinking they will allow me to change into something I wasn't
And I did change, but not in the way I expected
Not in a way others wanted
I became bitter through my own actions and indescribable by forcing change
Time is what i took from myself and time is what allowed me to repent
What I borrowed will be paid back and what I stole,
God help me,
Will be carved from my flesh
