I will not resist the purge
Experience every urge
Feelings will soon surge
Upon the mental verge

I will not say goodbye
Holding through darkest night
Upon the wind to fly
Across the jealous sky

I will not brave static acts
Nothing spared which nothing lacks
Through time making tracks
Bending with broken back

I will not suffer any oppression
Defeat by the hand of depression
Once, an absolute obsession
Given to states of compression

I will not, I must not cease
Living on life’s shortened lease
I must ride that restless beast
There is time enough for peace

not to say goodbye
to allow again to fly
all that we can ask

This is exactly why you're one of my favorite writers.

subconsciously, i think i can eat so much to make my stomach hurt, instead of my heart.
