There's a full ache in my empty chest,
Feeling my body fall heavy as I internally crumble.
And emotion sit on the brink of my lashes;
I don't dare reveal a single dent on my metal exterior.
Soreness leaks from my heart attempting to spill from my eyes— desperate for release
But I can't.
Is it my pride simply forbidding such a thing
Or the fact that I poured them all before?
How can I be feeling everything so deeply so much so that it's uncomfortable and agonising,
But I also don't feel a thing.
