You are the Funeral

Comment??? I haven’t submitted anything in like forever!
I am the blood
I am the knife
I am the life that runs through your veins.
I am the pulse
I am the beat
I am what keeps you on your feet.
I am the razor
I am the pain
I am what keeps everything the same,
The reason you cannot change.
I am why you won’t let go,
Why your pain will always show and this wound will never heal.
I am the rise
I am the fall
I am the cause of this all.
I am the needle
I am the drug
I am the decision to never love;
The lack of confidence to move on.
I am the air in your lungs
The weakness in your mind
I am why you are unstable.
I am the hate
I am the sadness

You are the funeral
