it's all your fault.
your words cut into my skin
the typhoon that suffocates me, filling the entirety of my being
drowning my mind
setting my lungs on fire
leaving my heart heavy as cement.
you have stolen the light and caused this capacious dark
the stars call my name
they tempt me with their luminosity
you are the chains that hold my body to the mattress
the weights that glue my head to the pillow.
i see you everyday
the you that haunts my every thought
i raise my eyes to the glass
you are the image standing in the mirror
"It's all your fault."
