𝘌𝘯𝘫𝘰𝘺!!


Old habits

Die hard

I think that's how that saying goes

I'm not even sure what it means

I went back to my old habits

And didn't die, oh geez

I don't think I can at this point anyway

I'm too much of a coward

But the urge to hurt and die

has grown so much

It's like im being devoured


I found an off switch tho

the one for emotion

All it took was for my heart to die

and it caused quite the commotion

it took a while to find

but I'm sure

that this time I've lost my mind

I feel hollow on the inside

just the silent pain rotting within

It creeps around me

And whispers so gently

while I rip my skin


There's nothing more that I want

Than to numb this

for the inner turmoil to cease

I squeeze at my throat

I can feel the blood pooling in my ears

there's nothing left, there's no heart in here

I choke away all my fears

just like I used to one year ago

Except with fewer tears

Nothing will come, they just won't flow


if I pull tighter, my head goes numb

this habit I have is the most fun

Everything goes silent, little to no pain

when im at my limit, I can start

All over again

And after it's a whisper

what is done, is done

And it's much easier than bruising

Or cutting

Everything goes silent and I feel nothing


It's funny

I was scared to sleep after

I was scared I wouldn't wake

When I put my head down

All my body did was shake

Old habits

Die hard I guess

Im filled with nothing but sorrow

If I continue this habit

I might not see tomorrow
