Whenever I see you, I start thinking my head is just about ready to explode. Whenever I touch you, my chest tightens and it becomes difficult to breathe. Living in this house feels like being trapped in some cold prison now, cruel punishment I must endure.
Why should anyone have to harden their heart in order to survive? I’m dying away inside. My spirit withers away slowly and quietly in the noisy dark, and that frightens me. Sometimes I think only blood that can cure me. The angry kind that splatters all over walls or weeps from the wrist.
I have nothing but love inside me. I have nothing but love inside me, and a quietly festering darkness.
I want to be free of you.
