Staring at the walls in the darkness, hyperventilating
I didn’t know how to catch my breath
I wasn’t sure if I was going to drown in my tears
It all caught up to me to finally explode
Those painful memories I couldn’t let go
I lost a lot and gained a lot
Lost people and gained people
Was used by many and helped by a few
And physical pain never bothered me anymore than emotional pain
I became bruised on my body,
but scarred inside my mind
I became talkative to people,
but screaming inside myself
I became tired of listening to my heart,
but exhausted inside my soul
I had to adjust to a new schedule
Each hour it was time for a different mood
Each minute it was time for a different thought
Each second it was time to cry
I became trapped in my body but didn’t want to yell for help
The pain of was so bad that I became addicted to being physically
& mentally abused from my mind
It was a routine that I wanted to keep
And I was trained to love the new me
I was always failing & struggling;
Fighting & losing
Hurting & bleeding
Stitched up & healing
Scarred & markings
Alive & eternally dying
