99

By ColdScaredAlone

Stale air
Envelopes
Tastless words
That flow from a
Gaping mouth
I'd unhinge my jaw
To swallow it all
Breathe I can not
The air is dry
Sleep I can not
I lay upon a
Bed of stones
As the pains
Of the world
Hover above
My adolecent
Skull
I'd unhing my jaw
To swallow it all
If I could just
Swallow it all.
