a pit in your stomach

the bile inside

as your teeth begin to tingle

over what you just cried


the worry drowns you

as your heart pleads

begging for them to see

how it's made you bleed


the sorrow

the shame

the hurt

the blame


it feels like death

is sitting on you

suffocating your life

in everything you do


i'm sorry for what i've done

for the words i've said

and the actions that occurred

please forgive me, or I'll end up dead
