I'm laying still

Within the same four walls.

Watching the furniture move

Without being touched.

Watching the sun fall

And transform into the moon.

Yet Im still....here.

Haunting this room.

Unable to move

Speak

Touch

...

Where do I go?

I'm trapped beneath this earth...

Waiting for someone

To finally pick up the right stone

And find me hiding there.

Fill my lungs up with their air

To dig me up with their hands

And save me from the worms

Who dance in my head...

Who whisper in my ears...

Who invade my eyes..

Bugs are stuck inside...

I can't cut them out..

Trust me...

Im a rotting corpse

Of the boy who tried.

The boy who loved.

The boy who cried.

Who just became another rock

For someone else to get across...
