Craig's POV (triggering warning, read at your own risk)

(Play song)

"There is a house built out of stone."

I guide the medal blade down my arm.

"Wooden floors, walls and window sills."

Over, and over, and over again until blood was the only thing to be seen on my arms.

"Tables and chairs worn by all the dust."

I place the razor gently on the counter, inhaling deeply then exhaling through my mouth.

"This is a place where I don't feel alone."

I take a glance up to the mirror, seeing myself standing there, staring back at the reflection that was presented in front of me.

"This is a place where I feel at home."

I can feel the life seeping out of my body, the numbness I once forgotten about has come back. Making me feel even worse then I did before.

"Cause I, built a home."

I throw my head back and let the tears fall from my eyes down my cheeks.

"For you, for me."

I balled my hands into fists, taking slow but shaky breaths as I stared at myself in the mirror.

"Until it disappeared."

I close my eyes, feeling the blood pour from my arms onto the floor, feeling the pain it left me to deal with, I feel everything.

"From me, from you."

And I hate it.

"And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust."

I fucking hate it.

"Out in the garden where we planted the seeds."

I open my eyes and clean the mess I made up, not wanting Tyler to know about the events that occurred here.

"There is a tree as old as me."

Once done I drop the wipes in the trash then walk back into my bedroom, go into my closet and grab a navy blue sweater that said Broken on the front of it. Quite relatable if you ask me. (I want one)

"Branches were sewn by the color of green."

I sigh deeply and slowly pull the sweater over my head, hissing loudly at the pain of the fabric rubbing against the cuts.

"Ground had arose and passed it's knees."

I use the sleeve of the sweater to wipe away any last tears that slipped from my eyes.

"By the cracks of skin I climbed to the top."

I sigh heavily before walking out of my room and to the front door. I slip my shoes on and grab the keys then make my way out of the apartment and to the roof, where I usually go when I feel down.

"I climbed the tree to see the world."

The sun was just setting, making the sky turn all sorts of colors. Pink, orange, blue, purple, yellow.

"When the gusts came around to blow me down."

I slowly approach the edge of the building, placing my hands on the ledge and push myself over so I was in a sitting position. My feet dangling off the edge.

"I held on as tightly as you held onto me."

I looked down to the slight busy street below me, seeing the very few people walking by, either alone or with another.

"I held on as tightly as you held onto me."

I inhale deeply and look up at the sky, the stars starting to make their presence known as they shined down on me.

"And I, built a home."

I exhale the breath I unknowingly held in and close my eyes once again, trying to relax my body.

"For you, for me."

I wonder how Tyler's doing, what he's up too. Does he miss me? Is he thinking about me right now? Has he thought about me at all since he left?

"Until it disappeared."

I feel my eyes well up with tears as my breathing becomes fast paced. My hands grip the ledge tightly as I squeeze my eyes shut and lean forward a bit.

"From me, from you."

I gasp as I feel myself finding it hard to breathe.

"And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust."

I quickly as I can swing my legs over so I was standing on the roof again.

My knees give out from under me as I bring my left hand to my chest where my heart was, hoping that it would help me in some sort of way but to no use.

It began hurting to breathe, every breath I took felt worse then the last. I don't know what's happening. I can hardly fucking breathe and I feel like I'm about to die.

I need help

I slowly bring my phone out from my back pocket and go into my contacts and click his name.

"I don't know what's happening.."
