stolen fizzy soda

november25twenty17

shot up ready to burst. the world sleeps on without me, I leave in faded multicolor strings. useless.

paint me a prettier shade, one less catastrophic. sirens blaring, here I'm screaming, slowly shaking away the pain and replacing it with numb.

cut off the extracurriculars like sandbags, I won't make it to twenty anyway. I'll see the disappointment and laugh at it, even though I feel it too.

my love strangles me. vision so blurry except for the presence of the dark, of the lacking presence of light. it's point-blank.

I feel my heart having seizures, and then dying. coming alive only to repeat. broken body, sorry sweat, what else is left?

so hopeless. so desperate and alone, so disgusting. I'd feel sorry for myself but I'm not worth it.

everything around me fizzles out and fails. nothing prevails.
