you are the funeral

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
