Everything i chewed, And everything i swallowed, Didn't stay inside my system because it made me so nauseous I choked on the flashbacks that strangled my throat I choked on the memories that i just couldnt throw But then i threw up everything except my memories and hurts I wanted to fight it But i had to hold on I had to just rescue myself from being under I just wanted to breathe it all in; Take what i wasnt allowed to have I stole my freedom, then locked myself away I stole my strength that wasnt allowed to stay I tried to get rid of my weakness but i swallowed fear I tried to get rid of my nightmares but they would always appear My mind breathes while my body shuts down My mind breathes while i fall to the ground I wanted to replace everything that harmed me But then that means i would replace my soul, spirit and body
