Sadness engulfs me
like a wave crashing over the shore.
Intense urges to scrawl the pain
upon my skin taunt me,
threatening to break me down,
strip me of my dignity and self-control.
Rejection courses through my veins,
poisoning my soul.
I want to be strong, but I fear
I will give in to the self-destruction
Because I'm weak-
oh so fucking weak
I want a pill
to dull the screaming in my head.
I want the biggest hit
to take away my breath
and speed up my heart
till I fear it might burst
right through my chest.
Self-destruction is the sweetest madness
The most romantic tragedy.
