Nothing

Spiralling down down down
Too far to save me
Don't come near me, don't try, I won't let you.
I am in my own zone, separate 
And alone
Lonely of my own-making
Hated from my own hating
Scratched and sore with aching head
Nothing helps, nothing said
Nothing is what I want, what I am, what I deserve.
Nothing.
Nothing matters
Nothing helps
I say, while asking you to help me.
Impossible child
Impossible to please, to comfort or console
Impossible and unreachable
Beyond you.
