 Why can't I let go of you?

 You're like a balloon filled with

 lead.

 Your string is  t w i s t e d  around my fingers

 Choking me, dragging me

     d    

        o

   n 

  . 

  . 

  . 

 And yet for some reason,

 I just can't seem to let you go.

 Please stop hurting me

 I'm not sure how much I can take.
 My heart is splintering at the seams

 My lungs, they're ready to burst

 Every breath slips  b e t w e e n  the  cracks  of my t e e t h ... 

 ...But I don't want to be free.

   Please, please   

 Whatever you do... 
   Don't let me go.
