Buried Myself Alive

I feel as if I could eat myself alive

I’ve already managed to bury myself alive, only on the inside

I’ve been stuck in this dark place all by myself for what seems like forever

Maybe it has been forever, I’ve lost track of time ever since you left

I sit and stare out of the window

Hoping that maybe, just maybe you’ll come back for my breathing corpse

 And I don’t know which is worse.

The truth of the reality that I know you won’t come back

Or the fact that I’m still hung up on you...
