Promises are for the Strong
I can't function
Everything is a distraction
Everyone is drifting
Further and further away
But when I look
They stand beside me
An arms length away
What did you do to me?
I feel dependent
Like I need someone;
Someone I don't have
I am dependent
Without anyone to depend on
It creates a new since of loneliness
One I have yet to feel until today
The only comfort I can manage to generate
Is that of my blade
Pressing against my skin
Pressing,
Breaking,
Bleeding
Relief
Resolution
Answers
Temporarily, but answers
I know I promised
But a promise is only as strong
As the person who makes it
I am not strong
I am weak
Less than weak
I am dependent on someone
Who no longer exist
Not in my world
We are separate entities now
We separated so I must separate
Myself from the poison that races
Through the very veins that lie
Beneath the fragile skin
The purple-blues curving down
My arms,
hip,
and thigh
Glowing with desperation
For separation
From this lonesome
