How do you **** something that is inside you
Cutting your wrist?
No that doesn't work
Stop eating?
No that does nothing except hurt
Purging?
No, it's still inside
How do you **** something that is part of you
That is you
A part of you
Not a small part
Or even half
It consumes you
But
It hates people
Friends
People who want to help
It kills it
Smothers it
So let someone help
I want to help you
I'm not using the passive form of you
Not a general you
But you
Specifically you
I want to help you
I understand what so feels like to be dead inside
To have nothing to lose
So let me give you something to live for
And then maybe
I might have something to live for too
