Hole in the brain

Was questioning whether to upload this. might delete later.

TW: MENTIONED SELFHARM

A girl balances a weight
atop of her head
it's ever-present
even if she cannot
feel it's presence

It's blocking a hole
to her deepest thoughts
those that can never
will never
be discovered

She takes a step forward
Taking a chance
trying to be brave
she tips over
the weight sliding free
and she topples to the ground.

She gasps in a panic
a waterfall flowing from
her brain
even if her hands cover the flow
it seeps through her fingers
her deepest thoughts
have been unearthed
and they take a corporeal form

It manifests a blade
out of thin air
holding it to her skin
begging her to take it
to do it
to feel something
anything.

It grabs her neck
stopping her breath
pressing her down
do it
use it
now.
