Im empty without my suffering Im not human Im not a person I have no personality Im loud-only because no one listened Im quiet- only because i gave up Im funny- because i make jokes about my trauma Im smart- because only books would talk to me Im a shell of a person Without my suffering Without my pain I have no personality to bleed

Empty without suffering
The stack of stones in my throat lodged firm since my youth, The ship sunk but I missed the boat my lies are soaked in truth. Every remaining image has been erased, I miss it more than I admit, maybe it’s just been misplaced, in an area left forgotten to sit. Scribbling an echo down my notebook’s incomplete, lacking adjective to a noun, description’s too discreet. The road evolves into an ice rink, snow piles now a wood board. A crack comes and down I’ll sink, time lost I can not afford. The cold embraces that replaced heat, radiation poisoning from the sun, but still the rays felt so sweet, I thought I was it’s only one. Translating from a heart, the message is unclear, a sentence that could never start, and one we could never hear. Now I see all the fires lit, playing chance with a flame, this round I don’t wish to forfeit, but I’m not ontop of my game. The breadcrumbs I left as a trail, are far and few inbetween, and so far they’ve gotten stale, blue mold blends in with the green. Reciting a favourite memory, one I wish I could forget, replace the plot points cleverly, and rearrange the character set. Praying for a dedication from any soul to stop, but I’ll take my medication until my eyes drop. Heart fire, all admire. Heart fire, it will never tire. Scribbling an echo down my notebook’s incomplete, lacking adjective to a noun, description’s too discreet. Scribbling an echo down, my notebook’s incomplete, to the words forever bound, feelings wedged in concrete.
