Endless headaches
Fingers bruised and broken from
Constantly tugging
At a weight
I've always carried

Exhausted eyelids that have been closed
Much too often
In a deep sleep filled with
Nightmares

A throat that stings with lingering smoke
A pair of tar filled lungs laced with poison

Fragile hands that try to hold up
My own chin

Legs that shake
Always weak

Limbs
Breaking as I trudge
Through this broken land

My body's on the floor 
Kiss me on my open mouth
Filled with hopelessness and sorrow
Till all that's left is the taste of you

Seduce me 
I will choke on all that you give me

Touch me
With your pale flesh
Make me feel your poison
That I long for

Love me
As if your love for me
Is not a lie
As if I am not
Fooling myself over what I want this to be

Make me feel happiness
Within false solitude
And broken promises

Leave me
Behind on the shelf
A book you've always read
But never felt
