I Know Majority Of Y'all Dont Like My Text Posts But This Has To Be Here - Tumblr Posts

void

some people are brought up as voids

and when you're not sure how to build a person out of that void, you try filling it instead

with short-term poison-anesthetics; like sharps, or pills, or relationships, or pretend, or food—

or starving that void until it gapes enough to consume even it's own destruction

and the void is always screaming, and so are you, but anyone who hears it loses their mind

i don't know how to be a person, and it hurts. and i'm learning to express that pain with my words, not my body, but it's difficult to detach something that's built into the foundations

how can i describe it when you're a person in all the ways that i'm not?
