I’m sick of sleep, I’ve slept enough.

I’m sick of pain, I’ve hurt enough.

I’m sick of blood, I’ve bled enough.

You never gave me my book back.

I long to

awaken in the night

and be unable to

ease myself

back into an easy sleep.

I don’t want to be alone.

Lips

here

there.

Unsuspecting.

Pull

like a band-aid.

Find my veins.

I want to be strong

and fearless

again.

I long for courage.

Alas,

it was lost

in the back of the

ambulance.

I can't be anybody

I can't be anybody

I can't be anybody.

I need to sleep it off.

I don't punch hard enough

to leave any

lasting impact.

Not even a bruise.

I truly want
to be loud
to scream.
I simply cannot.
Trust me,
I've tried.
Trust me,
I've lied.

Going

Don't even look at me

I'm gone

I've have always been away.
