i only have a few things to say: i'm tired. i'm tired of splitting open my chest every couple of months and wringing my heart out and letting it dry for a bit before jumping back into the pool. i'm tired of hanging outside someone's back door tense and trying to look lazy because i can't sleep and i'm bored with superstition. i'm sure i asked for this condition, everyone heard those words, and now i have enough. i've had enough. i'm exhausted with issues. i've had enough of them, why can't everyone just get over themselves and hold someone like it isn't a weakness?

A voided colon of empty sentiments.
