Ah, sweet misery.
My true friend,
My one companion.
Always alone
Yet, never without
You.
When happiness falls away
I have you to turn to.
When loneliness is all that's left
I can feel you
Crawling under my skin.
Burning.
I have to let you out;
You cannot be contained.
Silver blades break the surface,
And I watch as you snake your way
Across my skin . . .
Staining it so red.
Oh, sweet misery
Don't leave me now;
You're all I have left.
I can feel your warmth
As you pool beneath me
On the ground.
