my walls are
closing in on me,
suffocating whatever
hasn't already been wasted away.
it's ok,
i'm alright,
do you really believe
these shallow statements?
i've fooled you yet again
with all this shit
that comes from my head,
all the lies,
all the pain-
no one will ever know.
i'm crying out for love,
screaming,
bleeding,
please come help,
save me from
this shrinking room
that i've unwillingly
locked myself into,
and i've swallowed the key,
my only hope
is that the lock
will rust away,
and everything will come out,
everyone will know
what i've kept inside for
far too long,
finally |
