ERROR.
ERROR.
ERROR.
I SAY THIS OVER AND OVER.
WHEN I'M ANXIOUS,
WHEN I'M SAD,
WHEN I'M RESTLESS,
WHEN I CAN'T SLEEP.

ERROR.
ERROR.
ERROR.
ERROR, CONSTANTLY.
ERROR, UNTITLED.
ERROR, NINE REASONS.
ERROR, REASON FORTY FIVE.
ERROR.
ERROR.
ERROR.

EVERYTHING WAS LOST AND GAINED AGAIN.
EVERYTHING WAS NOTHING AND WHEN IT BECAME
SOMETHING, MY BONES STARTED TO CRACK AND BREAK.
THEY WERE BRITTLE.
ERROR: BRITTLE BONES.

ERROR.
ERROR.
ERROR.
THE MEDICINE THE DOCTOR GAVE YOU
WASN'T ENOUGH AND NOW
YOU'RE STILL IN YOUR LIVING HELL
BUT CONTEMPLATING OPENING
YOUR WRISTS AND LETTING IT ALL GO.
ERROR.
ERROR.
ERROR.
THE LONELY FEELING STILL HASN'T SUNK
AND THE THINGS ABOUT
"GETTING BETTER" WHERE ONLY TO REASSURE
THE BROKEN MIND THAT
REALLY, THERE IS NO GETTING BETTER, YOU MUST,
ONE, PERSUADE YOUR
MIND THAT POSITIVITY IS REALLY AN EXCELLENT THING
THAT EVEN THE
ANGRIEST AND MOST SADDEST PERSON
CAN ACHIEVE.

BREATHE.
THINK OF NO ERRORS.
ERRORS ARE WHEN YOUR BREATHING IS DISABLED,
WHEN YOUR SMILE IS FROZEN,
WHEN YOUR BODY WON'T MOVE.

YOU ARE STRONG.

YOU ARE NOT AN ERROR.
