I need someone to fill the gap
Between

my

words
In the spaces inside my head

Figure me out, please

Put me together like a puzzle
Connect the lines between the dots
And help me understand

Fill my heart with stories
Show me how to breathe like I never have
And live like I’ve never died

Make me forget my past
And all the demons that inhabit it
Somehow including myself

Teach me how to be someone else
Don’t let me sink too deep
Save me before I disappear


But it’s too late, and I suppose it always has been
I’m drowning in my sins as I reach for the light
And it is so beautiful.
