Drug Hazed

Numbness. Her body is full of sensations but none felt from her skin. Burning deep in her veins, rotting from her heart O U T W A R D S Those words they whipped on her skin, etched in red lines, red ink drips down, coating the floor in a bright paint. He looks at her though a shade is over his eyes, hiding her pain as the drugs take them to a new world. His own body is a web of lies, spun to r4semble a friend, someone there to talk to. His hand n hers is the only ting she can slightly feel, the freezing of her finger tips. Her veins cool down after sometime, and he starts to untangle, a wisp of smoke, causing her eyes to tear up as she watches the only person she could tell her thoughts to, evaporate along with the high that came from the needle in her hand.
