I scream for it to stop. Everything. Anything. Can't it all just stop? The madness, the confusion, the pursing of my already declining mental state, which only makes me more irate. I need the noise, the pain, the way the thought of you used to burn happily in my chest-- I need it to rest. I'd rather be drowning in the feeling of emotionless internal bleeding than burning from the inside out on your account. You hurt me once before, and it kills me to let you do it anymore. Save me or slay me, but don't just sit, savoring the torture I'm in currently.

To Feel or Not to Feel
I scream for it to stop. Everything. Anything. Can't it all just stop? The madness, the confusion, the pursing of my already declining mental state, which only makes me more irate. I need the noise, the pain, the way the thought of you used to burn happily in my chest-- I need it to rest. I'd rather be drowning in the feeling of emotionless internal bleeding than burning from the inside out on your account. You hurt me once before, and it kills me to let you do it anymore. Save me or slay me, but don't just sit, savoring the torture I'm in currently.
i'm stuck in a battle between staying emotionless or suffering with my intense feelings. It almost seems better to just not feel at all.
