awake

Not tired
But I feel like dreaming

Not ready for nightmares
But they come
Even when I'm not sleeping.

My throat raw
But I'm still screaming.

Dying Inside
But I'm still breathing.

I picked up the blade
But its you who's got me bleeding.

You ripped apart the love letters I wrote you.

Half a poem
Half a meaning

My body is here
But I am leaving.
