i'm forcing words out
just to fight the /lonely/
but it doesn't work
nothing ever does
not even twelve hours of sleep
not even chocolates or sweets
not even countless cat videos
nothing ever does
not even when i'm surrounded with people
the /lonely/ doesn't leave
company makes me more solitary
lying in bed alone at ten in the morning
feels
the
same
as
being with people but just faking happy
heck
the
former
is
more
comforting
so tell me
how do you heal this /lonely/
how do you break free from its chains
i've been a captive for so long
i don't even remember how to not be
who even am i without the /lonely/
but these days i can't even function properly
i'm sinking deeper
deeper
deeper
words used to make me stay afloat
but now they're just w o r d s
and i can't find salvation anywhere
so tell me
how do you fight this /lonely/
tell me
before it completely drowns me
