With a pen and paper, I undertake the no named tug that lures me to recount the memories. The thoughts are entangled with my blood. I feel them gushing through every nerve and vein. They are gritting under my skin, risking to collapse my entire self. I don’t know how to make it stop. All I can relive are late nights, forsaken in my bed reminiscing about you. If you were here. These moments seep through my skin like a leaky faucet. The act of forgetting is simply necrosis. My stomach has become a valley, empty but for the stones that crash. Shards lay everywhere and it has pierced my essence. Dear one, what am I to do? Am I to extinguish my flame to stop the misery? Bruises are forming everywhere.

Necrosis
With a pen and paper, I undertake the no named tug that lures me to recount the memories. The thoughts are entangled with my blood. I feel them gushing through every nerve and vein. They are gritting under my skin, risking to collapse my entire self. I don’t know how to make it stop. All I can relive are late nights, forsaken in my bed reminiscing about you. If you were here. These moments seep through my skin like a leaky faucet. The act of forgetting is simply necrosis. My stomach has become a valley, empty but for the stones that crash. Shards lay everywhere and it has pierced my essence. Dear one, what am I to do? Am I to extinguish my flame to stop the misery? Bruises are forming everywhere.
