Hold your breath
Count to three
Be Whoever you need to be
They can’t hear you
anyway
It’s not the time
internalize
Tip and slop like turpentine
Stick me on the fishing line
Cast it up
above my head
Thoughts glisten
I breathe dead
Weightless
Wakeless
Asleep at the wheel
begging and praying
Make me a deal
Finish me
Finish them
Don’t turn back and see
They’re crawling on the walls and beams
Still stuck there
A creepy christening
Tell me I won’t remember who
Who I was before
I met you

Where am I
I’m lost
Yet I must keep moving
This feels right
I could be wrong
There’s no time for thought
For the confusing
What do I do
If I get scared
Who will help me out
Out from this hurt
Out from this rut
Save me from the drought
Do you really know me
Can you see the roots
My capabilities
My weaknesses
You don’t know the truth
From where I sit
Inside my head
Behind my hollow eyes
Naively
I see you
As my pathway
Also my demise
You’re dangerous
You’re heaven sent
You are full of flies
A plague upon my heartstrings
A plague upon my mind
I liked how I felt when I first arrived
But now, constant dismay
I sentence you to gallows
Until I know what way
To make my peace within this jungle
I inhabit each day
Freedom
Such a silly word
I doubt I’m really free
You’re only here to fix yourself
Replace the memory
The bell rings
I peek through the latch
Throw myself back
The doorway rocks and screams
They’re here to serve a lifetime sentence
This is all a dream
