teach me how to breathe again.
you choked away all the
sensitivity
the love i held for myself.

i'm barely breathing, babe
my lungs refuse to function; i'm
obligated
to a sea of questions, you monster.

help me out of this baffling
sorrow
show me how to float again.

because i can't live like this
day by day, a circle of endless
sorries.
make me feel whole again.

if i die, would that make you
happy, you little bastard?
omit
me from your life, i dare you.

i'm approaching my last breath
anyway, not that you care.
surely
you'll forget me anyway.

he smashed the bottle.
unnoticed, unread

her screams live on
in silence.
