All my life I've written.
All my life I've bitten
Off pieces of what I know
To pull it from being hidden.
But my mind has left me unbidden,
As if writing is forbidden,
As if my breath has been taken
Out of the lungs I still sit in.
I used to be emotion-ridden,
Feelings overflowing that couldn't fit in.
Now, my eyes are empty;
They are frostbitten.
I thought I would be sickened,
Or grief-stricken.
But I feel simply nothing
And the walls thicken.
All of my words are left unwritten.
