i used to think that it was harder then. I'd already labeled it rock bottom, but I am a drill and I somehow managed to dig further. I cried so much more back then. but that doesn't mean i was hurting more. if anything, crying must have made me feel so much better. it's not like that anymore. the tears won't come, solidified and choking me from within like a twisted sort of blood clot. it didn't hurt more then, because i knew i wouldn't get caught. i can't break down in peace anymore. my eyes stay red longer, my eyelids take weeks to go back to normal. i can't mourn the loss of myself when I've already done it so many times before. i'd give you all i had if you could make me sob again. if you could wrack my body with dry heaves and horror because anything would be better than this. it wasn't rock bottom. i don't think i'm even there yet.
