12:04 is the moment my fingertips and toes went numb.
12:04 is the exact time the hands on the clock in my mind refuses to pass.
12:04 is the time you left your self inside my veins.
The time my blood turned ice cold.
The time I decided to turn to the darkness because I could never love again after this moment.
1:14…
1:14 is the time you left me to clean up the mess you left behind.
1:14 is when I was left to pick up the pieces.
The moment in time which I knew I could never be fixed.
1 year later, I was hospitalised for trying to run the jagged pieces you left me with up and down my arms.
1 year later, I was a danger to myself and others so they locked me in a room with only myself.
1 year later and my brain is being clouded with cobwebs.
1 year later, I’m still buying band aids and gauze trying to fix this broken mind.
1 year later, and my heart and veins are still in broken casts trying to be set free.
1 year…1 year and I’m still carrying around the pieces unsure of how to dispose of.
Unsure if I can ever go out into public without my brain whispering ever so quietly about the memories and shouting at 12:04.
Unsure if I’ll ever be sane again
Until I can go out into world and not see your face.
Until I can accept the coldness coursing up and down my arms.
Until the hands on the clock in my mind can pass 12:04.
My finger tips and toes will still remain numb.
And my blood will still remain cold.
