I want to

by raglem_airam

I want to be able to live, to breathe and to love. How can I do this when I can't even fix myself? I've done everything... Smoke fills my lungs and boys keep me warm, but I still can't fill this empty void. I want to be whole. I want to be whole, so that I can live life instead of surviving. I've done everything... I'm at rock bottom and no one or nothing can seem to pull me up. How do I get out of this? How do I stop being pathetic and lonely? Do I need God? Do I need to chop off my hair and leave? Do I need to ink my skin so I won't empty? What do I need to do? I'm out of options. I don't want to die, but at this point it seems like the only relevant choice. But...the thing is that I don't want to die. I want to live. I want to breathe, and I want to love.
