I barely notice the phone ring anymore; Messages tell me it does so every hour, if not more. I barely can hear it ring. I barely can hear my heartbeat. I feel I barely have a pulse. His heart, he claims, sounds like an alarm; It resonates throughout his ribcage. I barely can ignore it. His past is coating my cerebrum. My irrational thoughts and fears flood my dreams. I am sorry that my heart is buried. I am sorry that it forgot this language; It cannot sing or speak Out of fear of miscommunication. I barely know who or what I am anymore. I barely can breathe enough to say these words to you. I barely am alive anymore; You deserve a heartbeat that sounds like yours.

"A Joyless Euphoria."
I barely notice the phone ring anymore; Messages tell me it does so every hour, if not more. I barely can hear it ring. I barely can hear my heartbeat. I feel I barely have a pulse. His heart, he claims, sounds like an alarm; It resonates throughout his ribcage. I barely can ignore it. His past is coating my cerebrum. My irrational thoughts and fears flood my dreams. I am sorry that my heart is buried. I am sorry that it forgot this language; It cannot sing or speak Out of fear of miscommunication. I barely know who or what I am anymore. I barely can breathe enough to say these words to you. I barely am alive anymore; You deserve a heartbeat that sounds like yours.
