Truly, I would love to live. Anywhere other than in my head, I truly would love to live. But maybe I'll never have that luxury. Prisoner to my own mind, I've never known a word of freedom. And it is ironic, really, that the brain cannot feel. To say that such an ***** is the core of my despair. Bitter, really. I could tear out my hair and break apart everything in sight, but even that wreckage would be nothing compared to the one that is in my mind. Still, truly I would like to live. I would love to be saved and I would love to live. To eat anything other than the burnt remains of my once brilliant constellation that rains down the sky.
