nervous breakdown

8:11 p.m.
light a cigarette 
fasten the tourniquet 
shh... 
listen
to the smoke whisper
fairytales long forgotten 
fill your head with childish fantasies
listen
to the cry of a guitar 
writhing your soul out
loosen up your heartbeat packed with anxieties 
11:46 p.m.
breathe
breathe out the stones
holding you down 
break the chains of your unconscious memories 
tremble
watch it flood with red
dripping
tripping into a smile
hysterically laugh at your foolish insecurities 
it'll heal
it's not too deep 
it's cold
so damn cold 
it's running through
I'm shivering
shaking
breaking into pieces 
yet filling my head with poisonous positivities
it'll heal
it's not too deep 
2:17 a.m.
sleep 
stop them chords
they're so loud 
shake it off, think of other remedies 
sleep
the sky is pink
sink deeper within
the bomb went off - stop counting casualties 
all is dead
in the end
3:08 a.m. 
close the windows 
lock the doors 
shut them out
everything, everyone, all living-creeping realities
4:29 a.m.
tick-tock
the clock's ticking 
stamping in your head centrifugal anomalies 
tick-tock 
tick-tock 
tick-tock 
stop
make it stop 
find them, throw them out, them damn disturbances 
stop
they're not real 
that putrefied air in your lungs made you lose your faculties
scream 
let all out 
shut them down, drown in tears, forget all the stupidities
6:42
smile 
wake up 
smile 
wipe it clean
time for brand new fuckeries
