i am laying on a bed once familiar to me i feel empty in a strange, acquainted kind of way i am clutching fistfuls of sheets and broken dreams and the storm rolls in i am under a roof but i swear i can feel the rain it has been like this for a while now but i have not grown accustomed to the hollowness in my chest and every breath feels like blood is pumping through my body and it is not my own i am laying on a bed once familiar to me and i wonder if I will ever feel whole again i am whispering secrets to my walls and my floorboards start to sweat because every story ends with "i still feel like this" and i do not know if i will ever stop

on loneliness
i am laying on a bed once familiar to me i feel empty in a strange, acquainted kind of way i am clutching fistfuls of sheets and broken dreams and the storm rolls in i am under a roof but i swear i can feel the rain it has been like this for a while now but i have not grown accustomed to the hollowness in my chest and every breath feels like blood is pumping through my body and it is not my own i am laying on a bed once familiar to me and i wonder if I will ever feel whole again i am whispering secrets to my walls and my floorboards start to sweat because every story ends with "i still feel like this" and i do not know if i will ever stop
