I don’t know how to say
What to talk
I want to die so much
Communication just
Doesn’t
Cut
It
So
I
cut
this
flesh
instead
But blood is thinner than the pain that lives in my bones
And though I’ve only just begun to shed my life
I feel more empty then before
Empty and cold
Empty and vacuous
There’s a galaxy in me, a universe
I can’t feel it, I know it’s there
But
Everything
Is
Still
and empty
and pitch
B
L
A
C
K
And even when there’s a whole universe of stars inside me,
the light is hidden by the shadow of a
heavy, empty darkness.
And I cannot conquer, so to the shadow I succumb.
