I can't function.
I want to be someone else,
the emptiness crawls up my skin,
it hurts, it numbs me to a point where I need the blade,
the blood,
the sting,
to bring me back;
I struggle with hiding the wounds I inflected upon myself,
with the aftermath I can never handle on my own,
and which no one else does.
I can't do it anymore,
watching my pale skin fill up with lines for every voice,
every thought,
every poisonous 'what if',
that I listened to;
I can't watch my eyes hollow
I can't look at myself in the mirror,
watching the life drain out of me,
and I can't live like this anymore.
It hurts, it numbs me to point where I can't.
