Dear Anonymous,

How much more
pain must I feel
before it can all
be numb?

I'm tired of
running, but my
feet won't stop
moving.

I keep drinking
my own tears, yet
I'm still so thirsty.

I'm exhausted,
yet I keep myself
wide awake for I'm
scared that when I
close my eyes, they
might not open
anymore.

I want to stop feeling
like I'm the only
person that's capable
of holding my own hands.

Is my inconvenience
troublesome?

I'm sorry.

Forget about
what I said.

Dear Anonymous,

"How are you feeling?"

That's when you
finally heard
my voice.
