You did enough already
broke my heart into pieces and instead of
gluing them back together
you said its my fault for even having a heart
all my life i thought
there’s something brighter
when you become older
but nothing changed
i feel guilty for even catching a breath
am i mad?
years of abuse
madness is inevitable
sadness is consuming me again
sleepless nights
they pile up now
insanity is in the details
i can never forget
at night it’s killing me
looking at me from the shadows
of my leaving door
i want to forget
the rain washes away
all the layers of dust
accumulating on my heart
forever is an eternal dream
turned into reality
sitting in the forest
and the only thing on my mind
is that i want to die
not the first time
not the strongest i’ve felt it
