Tell myself I'm fine.
I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine.
Yes, I am.  This is right. This is how it should be. The pieces don't make sense together. Can't force them together.
But still...
E v e r y d a y, I wake up with this hole in my heart, where that special somebody used to be. Then anxiety seeps in.
Oh, sweet death cradling me.
