[hometext] => Use once & destroy.
[bodytext] => I'm trying. I'm trying to see that silver lining. I'm drawing the images in my mind Of the door to escape into another time, When my blood wasn't synthetic, and my heart beat for the fun of it. When sunlight used to nourish my skin ...memories. It looks after me like an angel. And I alone slain my whole family. My life. My dreams; My insides. The elixir of the veins. So when I just forget to breathe I hear it scream! Oh the need. The need to grip that syringe And push it so deep even my bones Bruise. It wraps it's arms around my arteries Like a blanket when the windows fog up In the cold. It gives warmth into every Fibre of my body. It breathes life Back into me. And as my lungs fill up with pain. I can't exhale, I can only take in more Of everything I want to be. Well I'd rather bleed then be without it. The people out my window look in at me with Sympathy. I'm getting sicker. I rub my arm so the pain Will go away. From the infection This needle stabbing into the crease like a blade. Every morning with the taste Of sick down my throat. Everyday I lower the casket deeper Filled with the parts of me that still have life. Oh I wish God denied. Use once and destroy. Use once. And say Goodbye.
