A Jumble of Consciousness to Edit

By Hands_Around_My_Throat


I am suffocating.
Give me back my breath,
My words.
Me.
You took them all! 
I can't.
We're toxic.
I'm breaking.
Help me. Please.
Help me.
I love you.
I hate you.
I hate me, too.
I was a butterfly
a backward metamorphosis.
Now what am I?
Nothing.
Acid on my soul.
I'm not whole.
Pieces are missing.
Help me.
Scorn me.
I'm useless.
I'm broken
Glass flowers have no scent.
Help me.
I'm so lost. 
Where is my compass?
You are my compass.
I'm a magnet.
We render each other useless.
You're so lost.
Leave me.
Alone.
Come back.
Stop.
It hurts. 
Words are knives.
I can't escape this.
It is so painful.
Your mouth is full of razors.
You're shredding me.
I'm not me anymore.
I can't.
I hate this. 
I hate myself.
I want to leave.
I am anchored.
a steal trap
I cannot leave.
I can't escape.
I hate who
I've become
What have I become?
I'm ugly.
Straight to the bone.
It's not me.
I'm not me.
God. This is horrible.
Don't pity me.
Stop it.
They're only tears.
Don't pity me.
Help me.
Leave.
No, don't.
