A Poem by LH
"

Sometimes it's hard to talk, so I write

"

Die.
Die.
Die.
The thoughts pulse inside, forcing
My heart to beat along with their rhythm �"
Bang, bang, bang
Against my rib cage, dogs scratching
At my door �" let go,
I find myself thinking, the abyss opening itself
Wide, warm, welcoming beneath my feet.
I want to let go, so,
So badly �" I want to let myself let go �" I want to
Fall.
Into that hole and never resurface. Please.
I beg someone, anyone, take me away,
Tell me there is somewhere better than this,
Somewhere better to be than
Be trapped within myself!
Get up now.
Get up or die.

�" LH
I stand. I brush myself down. I step out from the cupboard. I am normal again.

I formed my mind to give a review but stopped after reading your author's note.. To me technically it seems alright and well-managed..
Regarding the content, I just want to add, I can relate to this..
Good job! 👍
