Don't turn the light on
I don't wanna see
What this room Has done to me
Every sound
Feels too close
Every shadow Knows my name
I've been holding My breath so
long
I forgot How
breathing feels
One more night One more door
One more voice
saying "Just hold on"
I HAVE NOTHING LEFT Nothing underneath
Nothing in my hands
Nothing keeping me on my feet
I HAVE NOTHING LEFT I gave it everything
If something wants The rest of me
THEN LET IT
COME AND TAKE IT
There's a sound
In the hallway
Or maybe
It's inside my head I don't check anymore
I just listen
From the bed
Every promise
Feels rehearsed
Every morning
Feels the same
Everybody says
I'm still here
Like that's supposed To mean I'm
safe
One more breath
One more lie
One more person asking
"Are you alright?"
I HAVE NOTHING LEFT Nothing underneath
Nothing in my hands
Nothing keeping me on my feet
I HAVE NOTHING LEFT
I gave it everything
If something wants
The rest of me
THEN LET IT
COME AND TAKE
IT I tried.
I swear to God
I tried.
I carried it Until my hands went numb.
I smiled
Until my face hurt.
I said "I'm fine" Until the words Stopped meaning anything.
So if you're out there— Come closer.
I'm done
Being afraid.
NO MORE RUNNING
NO MORE HIDING
NO MORE
NO MORE NO—
I HAVE NOTHING LEFT No mask No strength No pretty ending
Left to fake I HAVE NOTHING LEFT And maybe that's What scares
me most
Not that something Found me—
That I don't care IF IT DOES
Don't turn the light on.
... Please.
