My
heart
strays
and
falls
faster
than
gravity
can
pull;
I
plummet­
I
sink.

We parted ways
effortlessly
like two strangers
crossing the street.

Self-indulgence
eats away at me
like my vanity
gnaws at the bones
of my bank account.

(Insert satire
about my
inevitable
self-destruction

I medicate myself
with fictional phrases
because I really do hope
that someday I’ll mean it
when I look into the mirror
and tell myself:

“It’s all going to be okay.”

Inhale the stress
like those cigarettes
you love to smoke.
And hold the anxiety
in your lungs
like the chemicals
that turned them
to pitch black.

If you really cared
about me
you would’ve tried
to save me
from letting myself
slip away
