Cut me loose
And let it free
The agony inside of me
I breathe you in, but it never comes out
Shielded by anger and impenetrable doubt
I’ve made a mess of me
And in the shadows, I wonder about
Which parts they see
What do you ignore
I want to be part of your journey
And then I want more
But I’m too heavy, with my sickening daze
I’m in need so much mercy and grace
Engrained in the darkness
I’m forever stopped in this place
I see neither sun nor sin
Darkness nor birth
Just the electric burn of them saying
I’m less than the worthless
It riddles me in a way I cannot comprehend
Stifling my words, sinister in disguise
Coming to me in an elegant array of sizes
I wash myself of the day’s depths
Sinking deeper in the water, till it covers my mouth
Maybe I should stay
They wouldn’t remember me anyway
