I feel as though I’m floating;
like I’m just going through the motions,
waiting for it to come to an end.
How do you grab hold of something
you can’t see?
Where is my lifeline?
How can I stay when all I want to do
is drift away?
Disappear into the nothingness
consuming me?
Someone tether me to the ground,
I’m ready to give up
and float up into the black abyss
that is my mind.

Teach me how to say goodbye.

Teach me how to let go.

Teach me how to be at peace with myself instead of in pieces.

I don’t know how much longer I can go on like this;
Shattered.
