Did they welcome you back to those halls?
To the insanity?
To the familiarness of it all.

You knew the rules, the people, everything,
when you came back.
Felt the same feeling again.
Maybe you would be even more tired, too far gone.
Maybe this time, it would be the last.

You would stay.

The thing about my heart is,
i don't know if i have one.

I know i have a heart,
but i mean a heart.
Feelings. Emotions.

Do you know how many times i've been called heartless?
Made of stone?
Black as can be?
Completely cold.

But you know,
it's a lot ******* easier that way.
I don't like feelings.
You can get mocked because of them.
You can get hurt.

Why would i want to feel that,
when i can be made of stone.

I have two sisters, a father, and a mother.
I would die for any of them.

But dying.
Is it because i don't want to be here?
     Or is it because of my love for them?

For my father, i would die out of love.
For my mother, i would die out of love.
For my twin sister, i would die out of love.
For my older sister, i would die out of love, and go to all ends of the world for her.

I would die, out of love, for all of them.
       But also to get out of this life.

Long sleeves, even in the summer and spring.
You feel them when you run your hands over your arms.
They remind you.

            The scars.

Sometimes they disappear over time and you get to breathe -
be normal, for a while.
But that is the thing.

             Only for a while.

You got to feel free that time, do you remember?
(how could you forget?)
But as it always does,

         it came crushing and trashing back.
         That feeling, that feeling you keep trying to suffocate.

Back to the long sleeves.

— The End —
