mind (a broken record) by Uriel Tovarthe cold
heartless spike
pierces through
my temple
spilling out
the empty thoughts
and regrets
held on to.
in a year or two it will be over anyways
in a year or two
in a year or two
in a year
the room isn't as small as
it was
when i fell into
it
it
fell into
into.
'though i can't see
you anymore
i still struggle to cut my eye
eye
i open
my iris
open with my finger nail
nail
