Literate Confusion

I'm lost within the pages of my own life
Traversing sentences
And scaling paragraphs
Searching for an escape
I've traveled chapter after chapter
Time never slows
But speeds up

These pages are old and new
Some are worn away
Others will never do
So many papercuts
Bleeding blood
I need a bandage

This text is written in
Pitch black ink of
Cursed cursive
So many memories
Remembered in simple words
Written on simpler paper

I can't find the last chapter
Of this storybook
The pages keep on turning
But I'm stuck on this chapter
