I followed the rabbit of despiration down the contradictory hole. It lead me to believe I could have anything. But what if what I wanted had no name. What if what I needed came in the form of a still beating heart. My flesh was crawling with want. Lust. Desire. I needed it. I wanted it. Hopeless and weary, I craved it in an ugly and filthy fashion. My bones ached for the touch of something real. Something that could feel. I was ripped of comfort and replaced it with grit. **** out the pure and pour in the damage. I don't want to leave. I can't. I'm stuck. Simply, stuck.
