I've been hurting recently
In every way imaginable.
My heart shatters within my chest
And the pieces splinter painfully.
My mind has been pushed until
It can take no more.
It does not want to be strong anymore
How long will it take
Before it finally breaks?
My hands, they shake violently
I cannot keep them still.
My legs lug themselves along
As my feet become cinderblocks without a cause.
My core meets its volatile friend, Anxiety
Shooting knives into my stomach
With every movement.
She makes my breathing shallow
And saturates my body
In buckets of sweat.
Why must this happen now?
It's ******* the life from me
Day by day
Minute by minute
Every second
I cannot talk
I cannot move
I cannot *be.
