let my words sink in like I keep sinking into the inescapable quicksand that is the thoughts I can't get out of my head
the words that rather than keeping me up all night force me to bed early just to escape them
these are the words that ring through my ears
the ones that keep me from talking and the ones the push me towards the end
the words that are the reason I feel so breakable
and the words that you are the only one to have heard
outside of my own mind
just let those words sink in
