Something inside me stirs
Something doesn't feel right
My stomach twists like a gymnast
My head is spinning like a ballerina
No options other than to lie here
I taste salt on my tongue
Salt and nothing else

My brain cries out, begging it to stop
My vision goes crazy
All I see is static
I can't even move
I sit there until they return
Tears streaming down my face
I turn them and cry out
Why has it come to this?
Why me of all people?
