My lungs fill with a mixture

of fire and water

that compete for superiority

but somehow don't extinguish

each other.

I sit in a room of deafening silence

but my ears are still ringing with

loud cacophony.

I am still trying to figure out

how I am both one and another—

both black and white—

but yet not grey.

Its been months since we've talked

and my unfinished sentences

toward you are surrounding me.

You were my outlet,

my one good thing.

I'm sorry,

but I've forgotten how to speak.

More or less write.

My brain is eating my heart

or my heart is eating my brain

and I can't tell which is which yet.

I'm sorry.
