Harder Times

Written August 13, 2024

The cold silver stings

My heart won't stop racing

Do I want this?

Should I want this?

I don't

It's quiet

I'm cold

I keep trying to ask him for help, but he doesn't respond

I trust him

More than anyone

But he doesn't respond

I'm not okay

But that's fine

It's painful

But it's fine

Everything's fine

-A.E.T.
