I think there's something wrong with me.

I feel nothing.

And I crave something, anything that will bring me relief.

I feel everything.

The bottle stares at me from across the room.

I shouldn't.

It's 6 in the morning and I haven't slept;

But its a magnet and I'm the metal.

I crave the burn.

I crave a feeling, any feeling.

Knowing I shouldn't;

Knowing it's a slippery slope, but do I care?

Does anyone...

Fire in my chest helps me to remember I can feel...

I'm not numb.

I have feelings.

How can I feel so much and so little?

I want everything to stop.

I want quiet.
