Inside my mind, I am rotting...rotting away. I haven't felt like myself in such a long time. I think she's gone. The parts of me I loved, the parts of me I used to worship, the parts of me that shined brighter than the sun.
The later the nights that I sleep, the more restless my thoughts became.
It is like a boulder is being lifted from the darkness that I hide away.
Even in my effort to settle the water swarming inside, inside, of me - there is nothing I feel. Nothing.
Where did the love go?
Where did she go?
All the kind thoughts.
Maybe I am ruined. Maybe I have ruined myself.
And even as I try to run away from the heartbreak that I've given myself - that ghost still won't leave me alone.
He is everywhere. Why won't he leave me?
He haunts each festered thought and he begs for attention.
I don't need you anymore, sadness.
In turn, you manifested into rage.
And I am constantly exploding. Every chance I get - I grieve the darkness inside of me.
Inside of me.
She is no longer here, I fear...
I guess it's time to create somebody new.
But I am so tired now.
I cannot even cry.
Is this how you felt?
I hope you're as despaired as I am.
I don't want to apologise. She's no longer here.
