Today my demon asked "why won't your feet move?"

I feel my broken lips turn into a frown looking forward at my smirking demon I say
"You should know, you were the one who nailed them into this never melting ice"

As her smirk grows and a full boasted laugh erupts from her broken lips she turns her bloodshot eyes to look right into mine and says "No sweetheart that was all you"

once, I told you that I loved the
sound of thunderstorms

but it hasn't felt sunny
since you left.



I'm so tired
of hearing this rain.

fetch me my coat
my shoes are by the door
i am not waiting for you anymore

there has been a drought
that has starved me to death
but i have better things to do
with my dying breath.

my mirror has shattered;
my glass façade.
i no longer urge myself
to fuel your cause

Mudslide muscles
Coax me into the couch
The cloud of distant ache
Coursing rivers in my legs below.

I welcome the pain with warm embrace.

Yesterday
I felt well enough to run.
For some, sore muscles are a minor distraction post-exercise. For me, the sore muscles increased an already significant fatigue. But I'm grateful for it, because yesterday I felt healthy.

The insomnia gnawing through my weary bones
will never compare
to the feelings
of loving
and losing
You-

Sometimes
even Crying
is hard...
Just Breathe Somehow..

Hour after hour, day after day I sit here and try to pray, my conscious won't let go of all this ****** pain, all this hate keeps building up.my life as it once was has somehow escaped, I dread the agony, yet there's so much more to come, my soul is lost in all my sorrows ill go to sleep tonight hoping to see tomorrow, if my body awakens from this dreadful rest ill go through this day praying its the start of my new beginning.
