Poem

On Repeat

I just want to be let out.
I want to rip out of my skin
drip drip drip (look I’m human my blood is red)
Sell my soul for peace
Left alone
[alone]
in my head
but the radio’s broken the song is on repeat
[over and over and over and--]
Breathing’s stopped the world is gray
(The whispers)
The voices in my head are just myself
Too weak to live too strong to die
A child of hypocrisy and lover of lies
And who am I behind the mask?
[no one and nothing and nowhere]
I want to cry
but my cheeks are staying dry
[damn them]
And I have a favor to ask of those to whom it may concern:

I need a heart because I broke mine and it’s non-refundable.

We share a heart, dearest.

So what inspired this particular poem?

erm. *snuggles* I don't actually know what inspired it, it just appeared and ripped out of my hand, and I was like, damn, I wasn't depressed before, but I am now. >< *laughs*
