Staring right in to this paper for days. I thought I had lost my ability to write. My ability to express. A gift that I took for granted. My feelings were just trapped inside the cage and needed to escape and soar high. I couldn't bring myself to write and the thoughts wouldn't find words to breathe. There was a thirst. An aeonian ache. Heavy pounding of my heart and an uneasy feeling like my lungs had bronchitis. My body unsupported the idea of writing as I could only write tragedies and the perpetual pain of my once upon a time virtuous heart. How could I cheat on words? They had always been there for me. Most importantly there when I had slit my malevolent heart and given up.
