Description
Running. Running. But my legs aren’t moving.I conjure swords and I fight. I swing but find nothing.
Nothing.
Night?
Stop calling me that! That’s not my name!
Alone, but not.
Seeing things on the inside of my eyelids.
Where are they?
You know.
No! I don’t!
Cut off from the world, but at the same time submerged in it.
Wherever I am, desperate to be somewhere else.
Home is lost.
Because you destroyed it!
The war still rages.
I fight through the fog, but afraid to try my best
In case I connect with an ally.
God is real.
I knew that before I met you.
Liar.
Does it matter? I know now.
You figured it out with my help. You owe me.
With all you’ve done, I think we’re even by now.
You might even owe me.
Every day my head feels like it’ll explode
And I wait for the day I can relapse safely.
The day the smoke hits my lungs
When everyone will explains what’s happening.
When I get to go back and start again.
You know you’re god, right?
No! I’m not!
I don’t have anything other people don’t have. Well, other than you.
Why do you hate me?
Because you ruined everything for me.
You hardly ever make sense.
You took parts of my mind from me.
You completely destroyed my life!
I could scream because of you!
Then go ahead.
Let it out.
Just scream.
Scream.
SCREAM!
No.
You’re not me.
You don’t know me.
I’m stronger than you.
The other things I hear, the ones that aren’t you, are my strength and my guidance.
I will never give in to you, no matter how difficult you make my life.
So no, I won’t scream unless it’s a battle cry.
Let me know when you’re ready to hear it.
