Tears
•••

I rewritten this
Over and over
Pages are now soaked
My head in my hands
Completely consumed in the dark
Music blaring through headphones
I can't remember anything
Only the numb feeling
Help me escape

I changed my mind
Let me go
I need to try
And feel the pain
I deserve to feel this pain
You fought for your life
And I lived mine poorly
Mine can be taken instead
Teach me how again

I tried to blink them away
But they clouded my eyes
Unable to stop
Unable to feel anything
I allowed myself to fall
Deep within I know
I should suffer as well
Please forgive me for my selfishness
These tears are my escape
