I can't even touch my feelings I used to live in them Now I live beside them Day and day again I watch them go They want in I want them to stay out. I push the door shut and the window closed. We are separate entities now. They scream in frustration now. Aching to get back in. I tell them they are still in here with me. I feel the memories of them Every day a rip or two reopens But I close my eyes quick Lick away the blood. Acting as if it never happened. As if the bandaids had worked Because I know half the cuts are from myself. So I tell my feelings I still hold them dear But I just hold my own survival nearer. I don't want to destroy myself. I want to destroy everyone else. I want to push until they tear Crush until they break I want to become so sharp That a look from my eyes can make them bleed. I want the world to know What my insides have felt And what my heart desires. From love to lust From wanting to fix it To wanting to break it. I don't have time for guilt I don't have time for pain Hurt, Anger I don't have time to feel pity I don't have anymore room. And sometimes my own selfishness makes me sick But this gets me one step closer to the completion of me. I am done with dissecting the human race They've infected themselves And I am one step behind but catching up quick I am trying to play a game with a finesse That someone as new as I cannot possess. I can't even touch my feelings. And until today it wasn't a choice. Let me lick the cut.
