I hate the let down
after an amazing day
the thoughts that drown me
in self hate
unconsciously clenching my jaw
on a bit ridden tongue
and the pain in my chest
with every breath
is no longer metaphorical

I am terrified of what's to come

The awful irony
in the situations I place myself
always selfish and hurting
but still looking for a way out of life
and death
