The shower was the one who saw all of me, trembling under it, but it wasn't because of the cold, it was because of the words that escaped your lips.

My pillow was the one who never failed to listen to my muffled screams, but it wasn't because the monsters of the dark were haunting me, it was because your actions that left me in frustration.

Coffee was the one who slapped me awake, but it wasn't because of drowsiness, it was because I was drowning in my memories of you.

Blades were the one who took all the pain, though they were piercing my skin, but it was because you left me shattered I couldn't even bottle up the pain anymore.
