Panic Attack

 

god

attacked me

last night

 

i was lying there

thank you god

i love you god

 

and whoosh

god answered

i have been tricking you

 

everyone hates you

i will never

talk to you again

 

you are a louse

you are a fraud

you are fake

 

you are shit

and all you do

is poop

 

nobody loves me

everybody hates me

i’m just going to eat worms
