the sound of my own breathing gives me comfort
tells me i’m still alive
even though i can’t feel it
empty, hollow
full of air, of tears, of ice
of something missing
all the heat leaves me
through my eyes
shivering in the negative space
falling
into the dark
behind everything and everyone
forgetting to keep my head up
i let myself slip
just like everyone else
forgetting to remind myself i’m worth something
i’ve seen the truth
i’m nothing, in everything
