What is Happening

I'm crippled from the inside out

Burns and ashes froth over the brink of my heart

well, what's left of it at least

Nothing but grief, sorrow, and self pity make up the existence of this body

Lying here

Drunk from love

Drugs of love

Intoxication of it, this dreadful emotion constantly coursing through not just mine, but everyone's veins

The violence and hurt it causes to the mortal flesh

The poison in the blood of mortal beings kills us in vain for all that we have sacrificed...

It's a shame we got to waste based on one other irrelevant being's opinion

When I wrote this, I was extremely...out of it lets just say. My thoughts were not coherent yet I was able to mash up what I was feeling at that time, into words. When I wrote this, I was trying to make it so everyone could understand the pain I was feeling. That love is just plain hurtful to everyone no matter what. I tried to describe what the pain felt like.
