You've been my best friend and worst enemy. I've felt my heartbeat rhythmically pulsing into the ground. When I cannot stand you are there to catch me, always. But there's another catch too. I'd like what you stole from me. Too many times in which I've lost my breath because of pain you inflicted. Why do you let so many terrible people walk all over you? And she- She is buried six feet into your skin. A gem to this world but you'd never know it. Dear Earth. I want her back. I'll even trade places with her if you'd like. Let her give life to you again. Let me go under and never come back up.
