Text ID: I liked Hell, / I liked to go there alone / relieved to lie in the wreckage, ruined, physically undone. / The worst had happened. What else could hurt me then?
Every day is the same and existing just feels so pointless. I'm empty all the time; I feel like a ghost, like a dead person. Every second I'm not distracting myself, I remember how crushingly lonely I am and it brings me to my knees every time. Feels like all I'm ever going to know is sadness and loneliness and a loss for something I can't ever quite identify. It's desolate, heart breaking sadness and all I can do is feel it.
