it hurts so badly
and i don’t know how to make it stop

do i simply cut myself open
hoping it will flow out of me?

do i simply smash my head
hoping the thoughts will cease?

do i simply sleep
hoping i will take a trip through the Lethe?

do i simply cry
hoping the pain will leave with the tears?

i’m burning up
and water won’t put out this fire raging within me
