i can feel my ribcage shudder
and my lungs ache
i can feel my bones threaten
to climb out of my skin
and i can feel my heart
slowly break
i can feel the tiredness
behind my eyes
i can feel the tiredness
under my feet
and i can feel the world
wanting to move on without me
i wonder what it would be like
if i let it go
i wonder what it would be like
if i wasn't here
i wonder what it would be like
without me
