I'm sorry lover for I could not carry the weight of all the stone and bone tied to your shoulders, the darkness only thickens as you grow older. Try as I may I will never succeed and I fear that I am never going to be what you need.

A familiar sadness swells in my lungs like I refuse to breathe, when I try to stand up tall I quickly fall back on my knees. i am weightless, gravity has forgotten me it seems. the walls dissolve and darkness crawls in around my feet. you turned out the lights and you're angry I can't see.
