Lost

(similar to)
i think something in me broke. i’m not sure when it happened.

it could have been some time in the last 6 years.

in the late of the night, when everyone has gone to sleep, when lights went out and darkness covered the world.

there was an intense pain, and my insides cried “this is too much”, and i cracked.

but something else happened. i think it was Tomorrow.

so i had to struggle through the something else, and didn’t have time to take care of the mess inside.

i wonder who else this has happened to. what do they do about it? it’s hard to know because nobody can see it.

so something shattered, like a glass against the wall, and i don’t know how to patch it back.

maybe there isn’t a way to. maybe no one can.

it’s hard to live with all the broken springs, bolts and nuts. all the feelings shove around, wanting to be heard, and they fight about in my body. that hurts – they don’t like being contained, you see.

with the shards constantly piercing from within, you cannot sleep or think properly. however i move, they are there, jostling about, messing with one another.

something in me broke and i don’t know what to do.

if you do, can you please tell me?
