sometimes it feels as though  my hearts been replaced  with the emptiness of a widow’s arms like one day  it went off and never came back  leaving a hole in my chest  where you’re supposed to be and sometimes it feels like theres a cage where my ribs should be trapping every bad memory  every bad thought  every ******* word you’ve ever said  inside  and i'm not sure what to do  i don't want them anymore  i don't want these memories all they do is hurt and  memories aren't supposed to hurt you weren't supposed to hurt me why did you hurt me? this emptiness inside my chest is starting to get heavy  and i'm not sure how much longer i can hold it  i am going to break  oh god  you're going to break me
