My heart burst,
and not like an unexpected kind of burst

More like it was slowly being squeezed until it violently split revealing nothing,
There was no reason

I just broke

And I fell to my knees and they told me get up but I could not hear it
There was ringing in my ears and fog in my eyes and my hands were filling with sludge

I could feel them around me pushing and pulling but I was no longer concerned

What is this goop? I'm sticking to everything and can't get away
It's starting to drip and they're angry for the mess but the more I try to clean the filthier it gets



I'm alone now and it's drowning me


But the liquid is warm and my body is icy and if it's the only thing that wants me why not stay for a while?
