_{its hard
to ignore his whisper in my ear
to shut out the voice
that claws at me at night
the voice that tells me i'm all alone
that it's all my fault
that's i'll rot away, unloved and frightened
i walk in this unconscious state
he's there
clinging silently on my back
dragging me down
into the depths of solitude
cold, as the swirling black clouds encircle me
my footsteps are slower
as he tells me it's okay
to forget
to detach
to give in
i yearn for an escape
a release from his thrilling hold
his face is warm on my neck
a fake sort of life that only lasts for a few sweet moments
before dripping away into ice
you don't need her
he whispers
you don't need them
no, you don't need any of it
you only need me
for a second i want to believe it's true
the next, i do
i surrender solely to myself
to him
and i feel my breath getting short
my fingers are numb
dead
i try to cry out
to save myself
to hold on, with the last few moments of life
but it's too late
i let go
relapse
and that's all he needs
A foothold
my arms and legs are nothing but hanging weights
my heart stops cold
my vision is fading
and all i can see is him
getting closer
as the walls cave in
his hands on my face
shivers crawl down my spine
now all that's left is him
his face, his eyes
and then…
nothing.}
