Fatal Error

August 3, 2016

I’ve hit my threshold

My fatal error

Avoiding what I need most

Self punishment

 

Stranded in the desert

I need water, but

When it appears before me

I avoid it

 

Self destructive

 

Maybe I’ll die

Before I get what I need

I understand my fault

But I can’t correct it

 

Loneliness

 

Please reboot
