Loss.
Morbid thoughts collide
Loneliness spreads like flame
Emptiness overwhelms me

Crash. Burn. Stillness.
What was once there
Evaporated Slowly

Acid climbs my throat
Seering scars along the way
But refuses to escape

Like chains around my neck
I'm forced into silence

Like shredded paper
I fall to pieces

Pain.
Screams along the inside
Walls of my mind

Like burning flesh
I lose myself

I unravel and crouch
Into a tiny stone ball
Held tightly by the fierce hands of regret.
