My mouth is running out of breath
I'm smiling, knowing death is near
Crying from my mistakes
Veins are popping and rushing through my skin
Making my eyes spin, and now I'm out of time
I can't sleep, feeling my words fall and struggle against the guilt
Carnage within this mirror
The clock is melting and breaking the numbers from the heat
Hold my fists
Make it stop. Please and let me feel the cold air
Heaven is not too far when the earth is burning
I'm fallen within the flames, it will consume me
I'll let it break me, every part of me
My lies, my promises, will be reborn in the ashes
Taking another form
Breaking and slicing into my bones
Because, just like everyone else
I know I belong to the stars and the void
I just don't know if they would still want me.

I love how the poem transitions from anguish to cosmic belonging. “I know I belong to the stars and the void” feels like a surrender that transcends suffering.
