Aggressively Distant

n

It snapped. Something inside me struck it's limit and my body goes ridgid. An emptiness swallows my mind protecting me from emotions. My face goes flat the air of my smile deteriorating agonizingly slow. My mind slips in itself not fully comprehending why everything is now ice. My heart hides itself in my ribs, moving my other organs around to shield. My stomach seems to flip as it is dragged up to my throat. I hear someone speaking but it is distant. My eyes dart at their own accord hoping that they will roll out and find a new home instead of having to look at the images that flash through my brain.
But wait.
Somethings wrong.
I can feel my hands rip into my chest grasping my stomach and suffocating it, all of the wails that came out were silenced. My feet find their own personal hell as they tread heavily on pieces of glass. My skin splitting and pouring out everything i can offer. My head begins to fuzz, my eyes finding a home, my feet finding their location, my heart found it's match.
And it lit.
Burning down everything that i could remotely call home.
