no.
no
you aren’t able
to get away with this
any
longer
you mope around
drowning in your own
pathetic
exhausting
worthless self pity
free to feel
free to express
“oh i’m depressed”
“suicide’s on my mind”
“run to my side”
“i can’t do it
alone

yet you surrender
me
to the loneliness you dare not face
“why are you sad”
“you lack reasons”
“your life is
perfect

suicide
is on my mind
but you,
worthless friend,
i’m the one that has no time for you
drown
drown
drown, baby,
drown

I think something
has crawled inside my stomach
and is eating me away
from the inside
out.
I feel uneven
as though gravity has betrayed me
and I am
water
stuck at an angle.
You were here last;
you snuck in my ears
with words
unlike any I've ever heard;
and now you're stuck
in my
ocean
of a mind.
Swimming, drowning
no oxygen;
just a mess.
A mess of creatures
and salt
from the tears
I do not let escape
either.

♡ You’re beautiful, your stringy hair and clouded eyes and all.
They adapted the fog captured in your lungs, it ran up your throat so quickly
but you had a choice;
why wouldn’t you let it free,
why didn’t you let it go?

You ****** it back up and it went straight to your irises.
Once a lovely hazel,
a monumental illusion of safety,
my own secret pathway to a flourishing place of peace,
a place where my mind was at rest.
For once,
for once my mind and thoughts were at rest.
Now, they are grey.
They’ve lost compassion but *******
you’re still beautiful.
You’re still so beautiful despite your lack of once overflowing enthusiasm.
You’ve lost your life,
your white lips speak louder than your chiming voice in this case,
you’re so.. dead.

How’d it happen,
did you trade your life in for the cheap perfume you continuously spray on to hide the scent of your decaying heart?
Is that it?
Is this what you're communicating to me, love?
Are you communicating to me that you’ve lost yourself before you even had a chance to breathe a single breath of unadulterated air,
the air past the mist?
You gave up so easily.
But please don’t worry,
please don’t fret, my dear.

You’re still beautiful, somewhere. ♡
I wrote this awhile ago, not exactly sure when.
