Shut down, shut up.

Melt down, shut out.

Dark. Eyes closed.

Alone. I hear you talking.

Over and over,

more and more.

Silence.

Hyperventilate.

Shut out,

Stuck deep,

Can't reach.

Try.

Fail.

Try.

Fall.

Try.

Fake.

Try.

Streaks of light, eyes

          crack.

          open.

Shock. Tears.

Retreat.

Try.

F**k.

Try.

Again;

Reach out, yell.

Scream. Throw it out.
