GET OUT
GET OUT
GET OUT
I can't breathe
my chest is
I'm trying to|c o n s t r i c t i n g|forget the pain.
I can't say a word
or this world will crumble down
this world which was finally becoming
bright again.
I was supposed to be
why are|s a f e|you here?
My heart is beating
GETOUTGETOUTGETOUT
but I am condemned to silence
because to say a word is to show
Why won't you|w e a k n e s s|just get out?
...
I won't let you do this to me
this is my time now.
I'll be|g e t o u t|okay.

The sense of anxiety in this poem; your use of form is incredible. I'm so inspired by this piece.
