Just unfinished thoughts, and a deep sickness inside, As I was forced to swallow it, Something I've tried to bury…” quote by Alice Jamieson

““PART 2 I felt doomed to death, But in a flash, Before I could reduce my thoughts To an emotion, I felt a mass leave my body: Departing. Then my mind becomes anonymous As is each night. Just unfinished thoughts, and a deep sickness inside, As I was forced to swallow it, Something I've tried to bury deep inside my psyche to this day. (poem written by alter personality)””
