panic attack (Remove filter)
Hurricanes
Swirling thoughts
causing chaos in my head
Leaving destruction in its path
Debris consisting of my past
Left scattered
Left broken
My head filled with TV-like static
Never staying on one show
Never giving me the time
To appreciate the little things
The plots
The characters
Somehow something calmed the storm
Someone
Even if it's for a bri...

big girls don't cry except when it is absolutely not the right time to do so.
am i hungry or has the pit returned.
that stupid fucking pit.
its an eternal loop, circling in and out of itself.
floating dead centre in my gut.
particles of another girl explode and expand out of it,
overcome by this strange girl from the strange world.
i weep on my mothers lap,
i retch over porcelin, patterned.

Loudest in the Room.
A simple note to explain doesn't seem long enough
To bring on one sheet my final feelings and thoughts

My Body
My hands is where it starts
The heat of the fire

My blood runs everywhere
With a temperature
Way too high
They torture me
Crippling my movements
Immediately
