How can it hurt so much?
How can my insides feel so hollow? Like there is nothing.
All I want to do is curl into a ball while my heart pours down my cheeks.
Will that help? Will that make it go away? For how long? Forever? For a few minutes?
No.
It will return. It always does.
Get out. Please, I don't deserve this. Do I? What did I do, please tell me. I'll do anything to make this hurt go away.
It's ice. Warm ice, ice with needles. A lack of breath, like strep throat. A desert in my lungs. The very air around me seems to be stealing my life. I can't move, I can't stop.
How can this hurt me so much?
Tears form like welts on the brim of my lids, stabbing at my flesh like tiny knife-wielding demons. They laugh at me. They laugh at my pain and my confusion. Cry for us, they whisper. Cry.
GET OUT.

Yes, I am aware this writing is kind of crappy. I promise i am a much better writer than this. I just really needed to get some of my current emotions out and this was the best way. Hope you like it.

This is tragically accurate. I can literally feel my heart shrink back slightly, at the raw emotion put into this. Brilliant job!
