today was the first day in my life i didn't eat a scrap of food.
my appetite has been replaced and the stomach muscles inside of me
laugh at sustenance.
drink your tears, close your eyes
give away any feelings to try
i wrote you a letter to sew up my mouth
so my heart wont hurt so much
when my mind turns south
i can't even articulate
staring at the stars
hoping you're watching
but knowing your far
we might be soaking
our pillows each night
but that thought alone
does not lessen my fright
i don't know worlds we lived
they seem so far
my dehydrated body
would like to step
in front of a car
maybe with the promise
that ill finally sleep
and give up on this memory
upon which i weep
