~ Why can't you see What surrounds me, My miasma muddled mind? Noxious tox lurks, Obscures and murks, In my eyes, so sure defined. Why can't you hear Words as they sear, Singe the skin, imprinting in? Scribbles on walls Shout through the halls, Inescapable as sin. Why can't you feel All that I feel, Noise, then numbness, nothing, null? Just cannot feel. Must not be real. Noise of flesh and empty skull. Why can't you stay? Are you afraid? Can't accept it's not okay? Submit to me, None else to be, You are empty, anyway. Why can't you stay? Don't run away. Only cowards flee from fate. Don't you leave me For honesty; It's just our inherent trait. Why can't you stay? Please, can't you stay? I can't bear to be alone. Why can't you stay? Why can't you stay? You can't go, I can't let go. Though hurt is held as hard as hope For all one cannot stand to let depart; I know that this is only just the start. Come home... ~
