Burn
I'm so tired of trying
And getting no return
I'm tired of living
And I'm ready to burn
And getting no return
I'm tired of living
And I'm ready to burn

End
Let me go
Watch my breaths
Begin to slow
Hear my heartbeats
Fade away
Watch as the blood
Streams down my face
Watch my breaths
Begin to slow
Hear my heartbeats
Fade away
Watch as the blood
Streams down my face

Torn Apart
Thinking too hard.
Crying a lot.
Feel I'm completely torn apart.
I don't know anymore if I'm ok or not.
Just really struggling extremely hard.
While deep inside I feel torn apart.
Crying a lot.
Feel I'm completely torn apart.
I don't know anymore if I'm ok or not.
Just really struggling extremely hard.
While deep inside I feel torn apart.

My Mental Shoes (rewrite)
Size eleven
well worn
coloured anxiety
deep over thinking
holes from grief
depression
neatly woven beneath sole
self sabotaging laces
forever coming undone
a socially anxious tongue
introverted feet
walking through these issues

Nameless
Connect, laugh, have fun
But still it interjects; leaves
Crippled; everyone confused
Fine; yet never are
Creeps in when least
Expected; want to understand
But it can't be said
No one can know
Sink into the nameless
But still it interjects; leaves
Crippled; everyone confused
Fine; yet never are
Creeps in when least
Expected; want to understand
But it can't be said
No one can know
Sink into the nameless
