An empty bottle and a full glass

I try and fold the page

Help me

Tonight I'm writing to you again

 

Oh precious night, Oh serious listener

Hear me, Hear you

 

The daylight will ask me, why I didn't sleep

and I will have nothing to say other than,

 

maybe you shouldn't shout all the time

 

Help me now, my world is spinning

Your only antagonizing me to do something sudden

Everything fades into moments I don't realize

Please drag me through it

 

I want to feel like ink on wood, bleeding and finding cracks to soak through
