Father you loved me till my lungs turned blue, there never seems to be enough oxygen for two in these cold white rooms
I am suffocating,
Drowning, unable to come up
I flail and scream
And love people who don't love me back
Just so i can breathe another minute
I let them break me because if not
Then my body will break and fall apart, because your restraints are tight upon my throat
And your love is kerosene lightning up my skin, and burning me whole
