All Things Unspoken

How would anyone describe this feeling - a knot in your stomach but you're not hungry. A numbness in your brain, but you're not tired. A piercing pain in your heart, but you're not heartbroken.
I guess I'm tired, or maybe sick. I feel alone, but I'm not lonely. I don't crave another human's touch, but I crave soft-spoken words late at night, for reassurance.
No one could ever handle me at my worst, so why would you? Actually.. could you? -Lillyan

For when you feel abandoned by the universe, for when you feel insecure. For when you gasp for breath, for when you need someone to call home. For when your eyes are swollen from crying too much, for when you rest against the toilet seat for puking too much. For when you need a hand to hold, for when you need a kiss on the forehead. For everything you need, come to me.
