there is a period of time when it is clear that you have gone wrong,

but you continue anyway. and sometimes,

there is a luxurious amount of time before anything bad happens

i cut the last vein that anchored me to reality, and

i cast myself adrift

the body always betrays itself, it blushes, it trembles

i once wanted total happiness,

now ill settle for a little less pain

all my life,

my heart has yearned for

a thing i cannot name

those who let the poison in,

are those who let the poison win

changing is scary but so is staying the same

i guess the devil works harder

i guess god doesn’t care

you’re the knife i turned inside myself in order to stay alive,

where i fed and fed that gaping wound in grief is where i thrive

times the best healer,

a wound like that though

a wound like that, no

when I was younger, I felt lonely, in terms of my thought processes

I had a constant feeling that I thought differently to everyone around me

so I suppose I felt lonely for a home

I didn't know where I wanted to be, but I knew I wasn't there yet.

in our bones, in our blood

gaze into her killing jar,

i'd sometimes stare for hours

-Gerard Way

begs the questions, is it really paranoia,

if everyone is, really truly is coming after you

is it a bad sign,

when the pain starts

to feel fine?

when usefulness becomes your identity,

being needed can start to feel dangerously close to

being loved.

make yourself at home in my rib cage
