Just leave me lying here
In my thoughts
Holding on to this pain
My heart is bruised
But I am okay.
The broken parts of me are scattered around
I know I can put them back together again
But, for now...
Just leave me here
In my pain
I long to feel it at its worst
This gut-wrenching, all consuming agony
I need to feel it in my veins
Let it consume me for a while
As it swallows me whole
I allow its darkness to blanket my body
It's comforting here
Miserable, but familiar
Like an old friend visiting me again
I lie here
Permitting it to enter
Enabling it to overwhelm me
And as everything turns black
I let it
I feel it
I drown in it
Let me just lie here
And feel...
