The coughing wont' stop. I must have tuberculosis or something.

In the end, I crave for voice  ...for want of sight, of touch,
Even smell and taste..  A tactile person I am.
And I'm empty tonight feeling like crumpled paper
While chemistry echoes ..churning away in my brain lobes.
Empty like a sigh.  A sigh that wishes things were different.
I can't do this...
Is all that leaving this salty residue
Of phlegm, these stupid lingering coughs
coughing up, coughing up again
Is all that even worth it?  Nothing here seems worth it.
No... But I don't want anything else.
If this cage sees fit to make me more rooms
It still forms a cage, beautiful painful cage mine
and I'm coughing up, coughing up excuses
As to why I am still here
I have so little choice in the matter
Why bring it up at all,.. why let it eat at my innards
As salty as the phlegm that I'm coughing up...
Intestines will make meselves me own noose
Waiting for somebody to kick the table.
Is that my only way out?
Meet Virginia.  I dont' want to live this way.
