im livid, writhing with rage
my head is jumbled and aching
no pills, no sleep—i am devoured
because i give and give and give
and they take and rip and shred
rip the flesh, rip the bone
take the arteries
from my heart
steal my blood, flee away
im drowning, im burning
my head is slipping, fracturing
hands clawing at my throat
water like fire takes my air
i can’t breathe, i can’t rest
and my lungs burn
before they’re taken too
my limbs contort, twist, then crack
i try to carve my way out
but im buried deep
tendrils coiled, unbreaking
raging, writhing, war in my head
i feel the lumps press against my skull
i crave to dig them out
my hands grip my hair
nails sinking in
but i fail
sinking deeper, heavy limbs
lungs rupture, body thrashes
the current pulls, the dark consumes
in the end
im wailing in water
a vent because i ******* hate the world and want to rip my body apart
