My inflections quiver like, like, like<br />
It hurts. I- I want you to understand that it hurts.<br />
I’m having trouble sleeping<br />
Having trouble eating<br />
Having trouble thinking<br />
I push against the broken door<br />
Hoping the frame will cave in on me<br />
It doesn’t.<br />
I want to move forward<br />
Shear will won’t fix anything<br />
They are heavy<br />
Like, like, like<br />
Fuck, I wish I could think.<br />
Like, the rain during a hurricane<br />
I cling to… I can’t decide which word would be better<br />
More conveniences are consumed.<br />
I’m not afraid.<br />
Like, like, like androphobia<br />
Tell my non schizophrenic brain “I’m fine.”<br />
Like, like, like the exhaustion is temporary. Normal.<br />
Whispers cascade, tumble down my brain<br />
I’m having trouble thinking<br />
Having trouble eating<br />
Having trouble sleeping<br />
Sit alone, sit with the uneasy, uncomfortable<br />
Heart death<br />
Air suffocates my waterlogged lungs<br />
Like, like, I can’t find the words to explain<br />
Petrification of body numb silence<br />
Screech into my mind<br />
I will never hear you<br />
We all die here.<br />
Feeling light in the head<br />
My bed is more comfortable than your friendless concern<br />
Like, like, like<br />
Relaxing more than just my suicidal self loathing<br />
I don’t know how to- shhhhh.<br />
