Melancholia
September 16, 2014
How this empty heart of mine is so heavy
I don't know
The weight is a thousand chains locked without a key
It's hard to breathe
I trudge the load with more difficulty as the days outlast
With shame my body's congested
Yet your piercing eyes glower through me, as effortlessly into looking glass
I don't feel a thing anymore
