II. Melancholic237Please respect copyright.PENANANaDtwq1B1Y
237Please respect copyright.PENANANY4y0Puvn5
when it came time for sleep237Please respect copyright.PENANAaugQwk9QQV
he had already accepted237Please respect copyright.PENANACgfKOcCG45
that it wouldn’t be a sweet dream237Please respect copyright.PENANA5g5j7AM8vd
for there was never a night237Please respect copyright.PENANA2NAgeaZSSa
in which he slept sweetly237Please respect copyright.PENANAn0Rg5lbwnp
in which his eyes didn’t sting237Please respect copyright.PENANAeSoytlJQIl
in which his body didn’t throb237Please respect copyright.PENANAUTX9eos5dP
in which he wasn’t a zombie237Please respect copyright.PENANAAH2W7HLOPG
he hates to be awake237Please respect copyright.PENANAaIpu7zBxsz
he wants to be asleep237Please respect copyright.PENANArP3Jc1k4Tr
In the heap of a mess237Please respect copyright.PENANAhsY5JXONIv
the young man rests237Please respect copyright.PENANAs8RQTgiXW3
his back against the box spring mattress237Please respect copyright.PENANAMgc3Ig6Fix
underneath the dreary light237Please respect copyright.PENANAvzY62HmQxC
of a circular ceiling orb237Please respect copyright.PENANAeCZaMgotEr
intricately measured to be equally hung237Please respect copyright.PENANAwUFMmy1ATi
centered between the four walls237Please respect copyright.PENANA8h4Bb5PTy8
enclosing around him237Please respect copyright.PENANAK5M8cafeRc
the small, box-like room237Please respect copyright.PENANA4Dyki58HLC
a little room crowded with too many things237Please respect copyright.PENANAleAdlLeMWJ
full of everything237Please respect copyright.PENANAmVLRMUOtJA
littered amongst the carpet237Please respect copyright.PENANAadht6O8bos
there is books237Please respect copyright.PENANAF0KrMbjthg
there is paintings237Please respect copyright.PENANACDYK0DDZ3G
there is wrappers and trash237Please respect copyright.PENANAncbpK1vIpo
things are stacked and things are hanging237Please respect copyright.PENANAbM06b7VlXS
they're placed and leaning on edges237Please respect copyright.PENANAwJXowLsCWW
things are covered237Please respect copyright.PENANA43EZJIfGzt
and hidden237Please respect copyright.PENANAtqUy1NPxZb
and tottering on ledges237Please respect copyright.PENANAl9d4ILjDio
and eight or nine blankets237Please respect copyright.PENANAmZo1zna6GI
are piled atop one another237Please respect copyright.PENANA3GZGhoZLvc
heavy on himself, on his bed237Please respect copyright.PENANAZIR6GqdXKt
falling onto the floor237Please respect copyright.PENANAoh0Luy8ZSi
like a nest of distraction and237Please respect copyright.PENANARahtdOa4Oq
bullshit237Please respect copyright.PENANAOwxyQftHDo
and shadows237Please respect copyright.PENANAy8c9DKtZlC
there are things invisible he can’t see237Please respect copyright.PENANAx6nLVyQmbu
there is always the fear237Please respect copyright.PENANAnedLXysmps
they hide in the darkness237Please respect copyright.PENANA6Ph58dz22B
and are hard not to run into237Please respect copyright.PENANApnxzQn1UZt
There is a concentration237Please respect copyright.PENANA4j0RscZyXo
to the paranoia237Please respect copyright.PENANAzarXIykkyA
and he maneuvers about the stuffed space237Please respect copyright.PENANAghvOaH1axq
like he’s looking for that something unseen237Please respect copyright.PENANAGmW3U5TJJb
Don’t let everything fall!237Please respect copyright.PENANA1NQVmNXLkV
like a plea237Please respect copyright.PENANACzHMFhdC3b
he is trudging on through237Please respect copyright.PENANAGkf1tK01NB
and heaving and slumping237Please respect copyright.PENANARyK0eUCgmt
what used to feel safe237Please respect copyright.PENANAXTZw17aIHz
like hearth237Please respect copyright.PENANAubl9k5ZZYY
but now feels engulfed in ice237Please respect copyright.PENANArjkgdxdMqK
Don’t let it all come collapsing down!237Please respect copyright.PENANAd1fsYOe7Vj
He won’t be able to do this much longer237Please respect copyright.PENANAUofPp9Q3bc
to dance around all of the unseeable darkness237Please respect copyright.PENANA6VBH5586o8
that smells artificially sweet237Please respect copyright.PENANAhHa3zsNCvp
and burnt237Please respect copyright.PENANAiln31piWLb
because of the flickering wicks237Please respect copyright.PENANAaufcLvACE4
he has three candles lit237Please respect copyright.PENANAQUZkcGZfGg
their flame tricking his mind into thinking he’s warm237Please respect copyright.PENANA4jI1FUe6cB
for a second237Please respect copyright.PENANA6NZXma8CUA
like a fire is inside him237Please respect copyright.PENANAGNwvAcJWYT
but alas it's cold outside237Please respect copyright.PENANAANO6YI3MlE
and the storm has raged all through the night237Please respect copyright.PENANAVj69T3LOAx
The rain falls237Please respect copyright.PENANAsvL1NfjLQK
against the small window237Please respect copyright.PENANAI5x3sxLp4b
in redundant tap-tap-taps237Please respect copyright.PENANAxll74tdoMm
and he attempts to count237Please respect copyright.PENANAndZOQMiPmn
how many drops fall237Please respect copyright.PENANAlPNpzzObyk
against the pane237Please respect copyright.PENANAs5UTb5uMbu
and quickly loses his place237Please respect copyright.PENANA33l4w7UcsH
and while he enjoys hearing cars drive down the wet road237Please respect copyright.PENANAUgA6A6i7CN
beyond his walls as he writes237Please respect copyright.PENANAHhEeqe6mPc
he wants to sleep237Please respect copyright.PENANAgPxXTRffS1
He is alone and contemplative237Please respect copyright.PENANATRotyepMtG
about how it feels to fall237Please respect copyright.PENANAmtPfMDJUty
into the insecurity and uncomfortability237Please respect copyright.PENANA1AFlHXL47H
of itchy, scarred skin237Please respect copyright.PENANAB0gPHeVrJy
his brain is screaming because his mind is ramming itself237Please respect copyright.PENANACH5tYVIqYN
against the walls237Please respect copyright.PENANAKsINad9AbH
of the skull237Please respect copyright.PENANAKGG3VaGqdX
He’s hung a sheet on the blinds237Please respect copyright.PENANAbuPOim2pud
to block the breath of night237Please respect copyright.PENANAhYqwlCogDT
yet it's still coming in237Please respect copyright.PENANAphp6vHnbGC
like a frosted wind237Please respect copyright.PENANAqdXeMFdglA
seeping through the glass237Please respect copyright.PENANAFa0Vg85e0P
of his windows237Please respect copyright.PENANAefbRAfqjr6
and the pores of his walls237Please respect copyright.PENANAAYWmiTkwZD
breathing over the carpet237Please respect copyright.PENANAfJx7QmPqJx
and icing the scene with ghostly237Please respect copyright.PENANArKSJc6IT7C
cold237Please respect copyright.PENANAh84PzmFN83
crushing him while he’s awake237Please respect copyright.PENANA5Mr1AxyGdq
the air is too cold237Please respect copyright.PENANAD2oSS15S3y
and its weighing him down237Please respect copyright.PENANAjUfgYRDjqE
he cannot make out what is in front of him237Please respect copyright.PENANAgEwUUAB3OY
with depression like lightning237Please respect copyright.PENANAquEDGE8ri5
striking overhead237Please respect copyright.PENANAIZW4RkzyaJ
bursting237Please respect copyright.PENANAnAzWdNje7R
and splitting his ears with thunder rumbling237Please respect copyright.PENANAAOhUW48U6P
and he chokes on his throat237Please respect copyright.PENANARnsMFXH07e
he is paralyzed in vulnerability237Please respect copyright.PENANAtKTBI9iUyk
his muffled gargles237Please respect copyright.PENANAkK3A4WDZq1
left unheard237Please respect copyright.PENANAqLTaHHF6PY
he can’t move his eyes that are bulging237Please respect copyright.PENANAaiQcV90Fnc
and his color is changing237Please respect copyright.PENANA3dNWdcW9MH
darker and darker237Please respect copyright.PENANAhGGE6Ni7sC
in horror237Please respect copyright.PENANAByUroMv0tA
he forgets how to breathe237Please respect copyright.PENANAIE8HS3pHM9
and his head rushes with blue237Please respect copyright.PENANAewF84qpbwv
and then darker237Please respect copyright.PENANAQdPdVIBhL4
for a trapped, dying expression237Please respect copyright.PENANA7enzg96MO6
He is more and more237Please respect copyright.PENANADRXZQ9JT9N
unable237Please respect copyright.PENANAl9nV7FXDz4
to struggle against237Please respect copyright.PENANAik8ao5TW2Y
the darkness237Please respect copyright.PENANAyj0AJ1Bltn
he feels inhuman237Please respect copyright.PENANA5MgtyiUcMO
He thinks of how dreamy it would be237Please respect copyright.PENANAR36Gv2Ao2J
to have no shadows237Please respect copyright.PENANAI6o7WAzHnY
and to encounter a hero inside237Please respect copyright.PENANAgthlNfSVJ9
to put an end to all of the darkness237Please respect copyright.PENANAEIlP9ANSQE
that keeps him useless237Please respect copyright.PENANAAcMvTFkFLm
under the heavy, cold air237Please respect copyright.PENANAu6iywHOLkY
but he realizes he has nothing left237Please respect copyright.PENANAoRkYFeR4ez
and his love is lost on those that he loves237Please respect copyright.PENANAWHJiN7Jsua
for they have not given him their hearts237Please respect copyright.PENANAWKR0IZYO7h
and he breaks his itchy skin237Please respect copyright.PENANAVySIaFltv1
because he’s angry with who he’s been237Please respect copyright.PENANAzn1xXsAUvj
and they don’t seem to care237Please respect copyright.PENANAInV8a0EPBT
so he thinks he’s wasted his time237Please respect copyright.PENANACnKPul1yHz
and they can go fuck themselves237Please respect copyright.PENANAhFkigCpbvJ
because he doesn't want the affection237Please respect copyright.PENANAWCens8Dk6Z
and he doesn’t need the attention237Please respect copyright.PENANAGMtVJ7CNZl
from someone who doesn’t love him237Please respect copyright.PENANA0ovOKmrJCz
You don’t need them237Please respect copyright.PENANA9r4dNTqG0F
You won’t have any of them237Please respect copyright.PENANAEnllGzCAfh
Bring light upon the dark yourself237Please respect copyright.PENANAlANCmjz39w
He tells himself237Please respect copyright.PENANAQTQPXlnZan
there is a way to become healthy237Please respect copyright.PENANAd1yTHX7uzb
to be warm and bright237Please respect copyright.PENANAZMza8LkpUv
but whether due to fate or choice237Please respect copyright.PENANABCQou2uRWr
he has been led down a melancholic path237Please respect copyright.PENANAhVHyIbxDQk
and dark thoughts disrupt him
