Room turns
Static sounds
Face burns
Back rounds

Surviving, is all this is

Legs wobbling
Black out
Mouth mumbling
Stomach, not proud

Living no life, trapped in these four walls

No eating
No drinking
No sleeping
No caring

Even when left, still captured within these four walls

Loneliness
Hopelessness

The only way out is through past experiences

Blades
Flames
Lids
Papers

Going through this, again, alone

Helplessness
Dauntlessness

So shall it end abandoned, neglected, isolated

Scared
Relieved
Prepared

Human connection was all that was needed

Key in ignition
Car in garage

So if someone you love has this look in their eyes

Slowly drifting to sleep
Slowly, a smile, spreads across
Fumes circle
Air's gone

Make sure they are comforted

Four walls cave in
Roof collapses
Doors blow out

Save them before they come to this state

Body still
At peace

Before they even think of such things

Asleep, forever
Serenity
