And I've fallen. So hard. I've hit the ground. Gone right through it. Never In my life Have I felt this. Nothing like this. I've felt shame And cowardice, Weakness And strength. I've known terror And indifference, Self-hate And general disgust. I've seen things That cannot be Unseen. And yet I've known nothing Like this terrible, Horrible, Paralyzing feeling. I feel crippled. Desperate And out of control. And it keeps getting worse. Every day I feel sick. Empty And somehow aching. Live is a Heartless ******* I'm driving myself Insane.

Destroy Me
And I've fallen. So hard. I've hit the ground. Gone right through it. Never In my life Have I felt this. Nothing like this. I've felt shame And cowardice, Weakness And strength. I've known terror And indifference, Self-hate And general disgust. I've seen things That cannot be Unseen. And yet I've known nothing Like this terrible, Horrible, Paralyzing feeling. I feel crippled. Desperate And out of control. And it keeps getting worse. Every day I feel sick. Empty And somehow aching. Live is a Heartless ******* I'm driving myself Insane.
These are words from the book Destroy me by Tahereh Mafi
